thanx alot, it works
perfect for me
but there are many people out there who need a menu entry for that action.
best would be contextual menu entry by right click on part labels

Both? menu (or submenu) and contextual on the part itself?

that seem consistent to me.
on the Mac side there are many folks never using contextual menu because of missing right mouse button of former Apple mouses.
I knew a lot of them.
Those people also do not much shortcuts or modifiers.
For those people there should be an entry in the main menu (view?)
maybe a changing entry name:
"part labels vertical" vs "part labels horizontal"
or
"vertical part labels" vs "horizontal part labels"
Many other actions in FileMaker having both: main menu and contextual menu entries.

Anyway what was wrong with the old bar at bottom. I miss the magnify buttons as well. Use the keyboard shortcuts now.
