Understood. I was searching on "preferences" and "preferences menu item"
but came up empty handed.
There weren't any changes needed for this app in the area of standard
actions (except for Preferences, of course) but the idea of not including a
mention of "Preferences" is head-thuddingly
I'm guessing so... It used to be called Preferences which made more sense.

Here's the v17 list -- note that the constants have changed, and the
backward-compatible constants seem to be causing problems. Make sure you change
any existing ones to the new "ak ..." constants.

I just checked a system I had open which uses both of these features.
I looked for you :)
v13 language reference - references to 'standard actions':
Page 603 - Standard actions and methods associated with menu commands
Page 629 - Set menu bar
Page 635 - SET MENU ITEM PROPERTY

Well whaddya know! Super. Thank you.
I looked through the "Associated Standard Action" but saw nothing for
preferences.
Any chance you know where that's documented? I checked the knowledge base
and the docs and did keyword searches for both but came up empty.

In the menu editor:
Associated Standard Action
Database settings - for preferences
Quit - for your Quit menu item
Database settings : places the preference in the application menu on
Mac and at the bottom of the Edit menu on Windows (this is the default
location for windows)
Quit : places
After a 15 year hiatus, I'm working with 4D on the Mac and I'm flummoxed on
how to deal with the dueling Preferences menu items.
When running on macOS, the application menu has a preferences menu item as
does the File menu.
How do I what do I have to do so that I have one Preferences menu item
