Hi Frank,
Did you get this to work properly ? It didn't give me any problems when I tried to simulate your problem. If not, have you tried to add a breakpoint to see if the menuPick is sent and what the content of its parameter is ?
Hope this helped,
Jan Schenkel.
Yes Jan I did, thank you.
The problem was that I had the Help menu disabled by mistake in MenuBuilder, and there's a bug with how RunRev handles disabled menus that had me scratching my head for awhile.
When a whole menu is disabled (as opposed to the individual items in the menu) not only are all the items supposed to be greyed out, but the menu in the menu bar is also supposed to be greyed out. It wasn't, and neither were the menu items.
Try disabling the Help menu in Menu Builder. You'll see that the "About Your App" is not greyed out in the App menu, nor are any of the remaining menu items in the Help menu greyed out. In other words the Help menus items are still selectable, but no menuPick messages come through.
This is probably the result of the menu item moving that's being done on OSX with the Preference and About This App menu items. But still a bug :-)
