When using horizontal menus and translated apps, the "Info" submenu isn"t
attached to the top menu but appears on the menubar. I suspect a bug in in gui.
In NSMenu.m at line 337, we find this condiion to add the "Info" item to
titleItem of the menu :
// The menu may not be localized, so we have to
// check both the English and the local version.
if ([title isEqual: @"Info"] ||
[title isEqual: @"Services"] ||
[title isEqual: infoString] ||
[title isEqual: servicesString])
where infoString is _(@'Info") in the code.
For instance in GNUMail, we got this entry in the french Localizable.strings :
"Info" = "Informations";
Then, using the french locale, the "Informations" submenu is drawn on the
menubar, at second position, instead of being a submenu of the first item (name
of the app).
If I change this entry in Localizable.strings to :
"Info" = "Info";
then the "Info" is drawn as a submenu of the first item of the menubar, as it
should.
I noticed that the french Localizable.strings of gui also get an "Info" =
"Info" entry about NSMenu.m. Could there be a conflict between gui and
GNUMail's localizations ?
Note that GNUMail isn't the only app hitten by this bug. GWorkspace also
suffers from it.
Any further ideas ?
