9.0.4 menu bug (?), suggestion

Post by tharpold »

Hi Jon,

When I first open BE 9.0.4, the menu item for Window/Open Info Drawer is blank -- the Command key sequence is listed, but the text of the menu is missing. Choosing the menu opens the drawer, and changes the menu text to "Close Info Drawer". When the drawer is closed, the "Open Info Drawer" text is refreshed and remains in place from that point on. This is reproducible every time I launch 9.0.4.

A suggestion: I'd like to suggest that you move the "Visit Sonny Software" menu from its current location, Utilities, to the Help menu. Might also be a good idea to rename it "Bookends Support", to make its function a bit clearer. I've always thought that it seemed out of place in its present location.

Hi Tharpold,

Yes, that cosmetic glitch was fixed in a silent update.

As for the menu -- it's not really support, since it takes you to the home page (from which you can go to Support, the Forum, etc.). So renaming it Bookends Support doesn't seem right. It might make sense to put it in the Help menu, though.

If I redownload the 9.0.4 installer and reinstall, will that correct the glitch?
