Hi, Yes. That's why I thought of ripping off a slice from both the translation AND the original. Consider this: Plugin wants to create a menu Image/Filters/verynew/stupidtool. Now we first check: - Is there a menu Image/Filters/verynew - if not continue ripping off until we

Hi, Look at the code we already have to add the tearoff menus. A similar thing could be used to create the branches itself. Don't waste your time at that. I already did that and I tried to explain you why there is no way to hook into that place since GTK+ creates the submenu on the fly.

Hi, just do make my position clear: I was not critizing your decision. My feeling was just that we could have built a similar framework on available resources with substantial interest and a little effort. As long as it helps Gimp development I'm all for it. (That's why I pointed Dirk to
