I believe that’s because for the Carbon case, the menu contents are coming from HIToolbox.framework’s localized resources, and we have all of the localizations already provided by Apple. In the Cocoa case, it would be up to you to localize your .nib/xib for each supported language. I think you can find our recommendation translation glossaries here: https://developer.apple.com/download/more/?=Glossaries <https://developer.apple.com/download/more/?=Glossaries>. If you don’t use a nib/xib, you could instead put the localizations into a strings file. -eric > /Lars > > >> Den 23. aug. 2018 kl. 02.03 skrev Rob Petrovec <[email protected]>: >> >> You should use a .xib instead of creating the menu bar programatically. >> Create a new Cocoa App in Xcode and it will have all of what you seek >> pre-configured in a .xib with no code needed. >> >> —Rob >> >> >>> On Aug 22, 2018, at 2:14 PM, Lars C.
