Hi all,
short question...
From the "What's new" of RR 2.1:
> - OS X applications now automatically delete the last two lines in the
> second menu of a stack's menu bar,
Looks like this ONLY appeals if the name of the scond menu = "Edit",
which definitively sucks in a
german/french/dutch etc... application ;-)
In that case the "Preferences" stays part of THAT "Bearbeiten" (=
german for edit) menu...
and is not moved to the app-menu...
"Help" (Hilfe) and "About" seem to work...

Can anyone confirm that?
Or give a hint what i am doing wrong?
Thanks a lot in advance...
