JPG, next time ya make a style change. Try clicking on the "board index". that's when it changes for me.
I'se confused.
You quote somebody else(??? or an earlier post by me??? then make a suggestion.) Did you intend it for me and did I indeed post the quoted stuff?

My 1st paragraph was a general public statement. The last sentence was to you. From your writing that I have in RED. KPISH?

Now getting back to shopsmith format was another matter entirely!
Went to user profile and my profile IIRC said shopsmith???? Clicked on submit and I was still in prosilver. Only way to get back to shopsmith was to logoff and back on. My profile was already set to shopsmith when I got back on.
So it appears that a switch to prosilver from shopsmith is simple and does not require logging off/on. Not so going from prosilver to shopsmith.
It appears from this vantage point that the user profile gets read/set at logon and can be altered for the 'current' session 'use' without actually changing permanent profile setting if done from shopsmith format. i.e. Although I was functioning in prosilver, the profile still was set to shopsmith. Nothing I did while in prosilver allowed me to change format until logging off/on. I did not try, but it may act differently if one is initially logged on with prosilver. That might explain the differences in other's experiences.
Hope this rambling helps, Admin.
