Issue with menu bars on OS X

I'm having a bit of a problem with adding a menu bar to my top-level stack in OS X. Here's the symptoms:

When I first create the menu bar, Rev asks me if I would like to compensate all controls in the view by the height of the menu bar. If I say 'no' (because OS X puts the menu outside the window), then Rev displays all the controls wrong when I'm editing the app. If I say 'yes' then when I build a standalone and run the app the controls are (initially) messed up, only fixed after the first resize operation of the stack.

I'm just wondering if there is some order of operations I need to follow in order to get this to work right?

Thanks!

Dear Jeff,

This is a very old, long-standing bug. Probably, the bug is even older than Revolution ;-)

Is the destroyWindow property of your stack true? You can see this in the stack property inspector. Turning it off might help.

Best,

Mark

Thanks for the reply, even though I didn't like what I heard.

Anyone know if this is fixed in 3.5 or if there is any plan to fix it sometime soon?
