Issue
Why are all/some entries in the 'Active Components' menu grayed out?
Product Line

Environment
CyberStation
Cause
The 'Active Components' menu is context sensitive; it only enables entries that are applicable to the selected control.
Resolution
- Display the 'Drawing' toolbar (View\Toolbars\Drawing)
- Select a shape from the drawing tool bar and draw a shape on the canvas
- With the shape on the canvas selected pull down the 'Active Components' once again
Observe that there are menu entries enabled now, only those menu entries that are applicable to the control on the canvas are enabled.
