I have problem with corel Drawx5 and corel PHOTO-PAINT x5. I had upgraded to windows 10 and now menu bar is white with white text. I can see menu positions only when I hover them witch cursor. Problem is only with main menu, when i open it all sub-menu items appear correctly.

MaureenT said:I have to disagree with you on this. I think you are misunderstanding why this is happening. Corel X5 was designed to have a black menu bar with white text, but Windows 10 is overriding the black menu bar background and replacing it with the same white that's now being used for the title bars. This is not Corel's fault; it's the fault of Microsoft ramming down our throats the changes that they decide to make without giving users the option of changing them. ...
And I think you are misunderstanding what is happening.
At best, it is the fault of both Corel and MS. But I believe the fault lies entirely upon Corel's shoulders due to the non-standard way they created that menu bar strip--and other UI features--in Corel products.
If Corel used standard UI coding and spent the time on actually improving the products and fixing past bugs, none of this would be an issue.

So what! I didn't see any documents saying the CorelDraw X5 would support future operating systems.
Happens to me all the time, well here comes a new MAC OS, sorry the $2,500 RIP will need to be replaced. So who's the idiot if I replace the OS?

Simply a UI is less likely to make an application less useful when coded for future maintainability. It also leaves more time to do more important stuff.
If you don't get that, or don't care, that's fine for you. It does matter to these people with this issue. And I would reckon there are still more than a few installations of X5 and X6 floating around that would otherwise work.
