Plug-in Settings In Logic 5.5 Osx Options

[Carrera]

hi,

not so long ago i've bought the 5 upgrade and then the 5.5 from
Emagic site. but i have a little problem and i hope someone
can help me!

here we go; in the first days when i inserted an audio instrument,
say ES M, and then on the little down arrow next to the bypass
switch i was able to choose an program/setting/patch directly
from there. since some days now, there's no more such options and
i must open several windows in order to find the plug-in settings folder.

i just want to know if there's an option or a setting to do in Logic or OSX
to get back to the system like before

thanx
