If you did that with the version of your NIB that was showing the extra menu item when running your application that you did not see in the Interface Builder edit mode, then things are really weird, unless, of course, you have some code that added that menu item, but that's not something one does too accidentally (of course, when you're new, it's always possible to overdo something like this and not be aware of it). Menu items may be marked as hidden, but that would mean it would still show up in IB edit mode although it may or may not show up when running in your application or IB run mode depending on the hidden menu item setting at the time of running.

The worst that can happen, from your perspective, by submitting a bug with your supposedly defective NIB is Apple closing the bug due to user error. The best that can happen is a fix added to Interface Builder that keeps others who may be remaining silent but frustrated to no longer be frustrated and getting their NIBs magically fixed the next time they open them.

I am really a total newbie (3 or 4 days) with IB, so I have NO confidence that I can tell what is a bug yet. I barely understand what I am doing as yet.

However, I should have done the "IB run mode" thing. I did not think of that. I just looked at it and it looks correct (no extra item). Go figure.

Interface Builder can be buggy at times, leaving some "leftovers"
around when they should be gotten rid of.  I've got a couple of
leftovers myself, but they're harmless so far; one of these days,
I'll just go all down-and-dirty editing on it, but I don't have the
time right now.  If you've still got the buggy NIB, submit a bug
with it included and describe what you see in IB edit mode, IB run
mode, and application runtime.  Also make sure to include what
version of Interface Builder you used to create it and are using to
edit it.

You have filed a bug on this, right?  .... preferably attaching the
NIB file with "extras" in it?
