I like to use a MouseDown state to indicate the current page that is different from the MouseOver button state. But I also like to use the Sticky > Stick to Top options which ignores the MouseDown state.
I tried to get around this by adding single buttons on top of the appropriate menu items. This works with single links but not with links with drop down menus.
Then I tried making the single buttons mini-nav bars with a single button state and a single drop down menu.
Interesting to know I am not the only one spending way too much time trying to get the program to do what I want when someone like you does the same. Just sayin.

There is a separate Stop and Post thread for February ( https://www.talkgraphics.com/showthr...-February-2017 )
I suppose the way to prevent posting in the previous month's thread is to lock it.

I think that by replicating layouts I appreciate, it tends to make me more conscious during the design of my own layouts. Here's a couple more from the set I drew.
