http://rutherglen.ics.mq.edu.au/~alpha-bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2288 Summary: [menu clear token] not recognized by floating palletes Product: Alpha Version: 8.2b3 Platform: All OS/Version: All Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: Menus AssignedTo: alp...@li... ReportedBy: cup...@ea... SUMMARY [menu clear token] not recognized by floating palletes ACTION THAT REVEALED BUG Menu Selection: Tearing off a menu to create floating pallete DESCRIPTION / DETAILS When floating palletes have been created, changes to their menubar parents are often reflected in the palletes immediately as well. For example, tear off the "Config" menu, and pay attention to the "Mode Prefs" item. Then switch to a new window with a different mode, and you'll notice that the pallete has changed as well. If you tear off the "File > Open Recent" menu, however, and then open a new file you'll see that the rebuilt menu is appended to the end of the pallete. The menubar version of "File > Open Recent" menu is built on the fly when it is exposed by the user, via a defined "-updateProc" procedure. This doesn't appear to be the cause of the problem, however, because I've experimented with defining menus that do not use this flag and I run into the same issue. In other experiments I've affirmed that a [menu clear token] will immediately empty a menubar menu of its contents. Am I wrong in assuming that this should also immediately clear the contents of an associated pallete?
