While I can appreciate the convenience of the "Manage" button, I think it's too large and could be replaced with a tiny unobtrusive "Edit" button that's either below the module, or at the top-left of the module title... so it just moves the module title over a little bit.  If the module title isn't displayed, it can still be in that same location.

Being ghosted over the text / module content appears sloppy in my personal opinion.  Does anyone else feel the same way?  Is it possible to disable this or revert back to the "down arrow" method of management?  (While keeping the nice new menus)

Here's an example I made really quick.  Feel free to use!  (hmm should be transparent gif... here's a jpg which also mysteriously has a border on it with image shack

Most of our clients that have seen the new manage button dont like that it hovers over the module title.

As a quick work around we added the following line to their site skins - this moves the button to around the center of the module header instead of the left side which is right over the top of the module title..

.dnnActionMenu{margin:0;padding:0;position:absolute;z-index:906;color:#000;left:50%;top:10px;}

The version in the default.css it replaces looks like this

.dnnActionMenu{margin:0;padding:0;position:absolute;z-index:906;color:#000;left:10px;top:10px;}

Would be interested in seeing other options for right justifying the button but have not had the chance to work them thru with the skin design yet.

Thanks Wes --

I almost restored the old menu functionality by doing the following:

1. Add this to your skin.css file:

.dnnActionMenu{margin:0;padding:0;position:absolute;float:left;z-index:906;color:#000;left:-10px;top:10px;width:480px;}
.dnnActionMenuTag{background:#FFFFFF;background:-moz-linear-gradient(top, #FFFFFF 0%, #FFFFFF 0%);
   background:-webkit-gradient(linear, left top, left bottom, color-stop(0%,#FFFFFF), color-stop(0%,#FFFFFF));
   filter:Alpha(Opacity=0);
   display:block;padding:0px 0px;border:0px #FFFFFF solid;border-radius:0px;-moz-border-radius:0px;line-height:16px;height:16px;font-weight:bold;font-size:11px;min-width:65px;cursor:default;}
    .dnnActionMenuTag img{display:block;float:left;padding-right:0px;}
    .dnnActionMenuTag span{visibility:hidden}

2. Replace images/manage-icn.png with manage-icn.png at http://s2.postimage.org/26ezv1d44/man... or
