Actually, the Help menu must meet two criteria: for Windows it needs to
be the right-most menu since that's where folks expect to find it, but
for Mac is must be the last item in your menu group since the engine
builds the Mac menu bar from menu contents according to their later
order within the group.
Sorry to be dumb but I don't quite understand this sentence - what's the difference between 'right-most' and 'last in group' - could a menu be one and not the other?
[Graham wrote:]Shouldn't this complete explanation go into the docs - maybe as a
webnote (haven't understood these yet, but I take it they are
developer-generated addenda to the main Rev effort). AFAIK the docs only
talk about the 'Quit' item and don't really discuss how the
transformation from one menu to another takes place.
I was going to add my notes there, but I couldn't find the section you refer to. Where's the best place for me to add them?
The only reference I could find was in Topics/Menus, where there is a question:
How do I respond to quitting an OS X application?
In truth this does not cover the topic of menu items being moved around automagically without the developer really being able to intervene, so we need a new topic - which perhaps contains the existing one - called something like:
How do I make sure my menus operate correctly under OSX?
(not great, but all I can think of at the moment).
I'm sure a lot of people would like to know these interesting facts!
