How to set about menu item content

Hi there,

I have not implemented a fully fledged top menu toolbar in my desktop application,(not used the menu builder tool).
So i have the default menu visible.. the apple icon, and the name of my app, containing "about" etc...

Most of the items in the default menu function as expected, apart from the "about", this does nothing.
Is there somewhere i am missing that you enter info to be displayed when the about is clicked..?
Or
Can i detect when the about is clicked..? So i can show a sub-stack with the info in there..?
I cant see anything in the dictionary that would handle a user clicking the "about" menu item.

Hi Gary,

The About menu item only works if you have created a menubar. If you want to hide one or more menus, you can remove all their menu items. The Help menu still will need a divider line and the About menu item.

Kind regards,

Mark

Thank's Mark,
That also makes the menu builder make a whole lot more sense to me now :-)
