Re: NSMenu:s created in app...WillFinishLaunching won't reopen

[Stefan Urbanek]

Hi,

Speaking about menus... with current snapshot of GS and Gorm: if I add new
submenu to an applicaiton menu and add some menu items into it, the submenu
will not open when testing interface or when runnig the application. Anyone
else experiencing this?

Standard menus dragged from palette (like Document and Edit) will open
normally.
