Hi everybody,
I want to add another menu item to Mac application menu of my SWT application. Currently I'm using a bit modified version of CocoaUIEnhancer for setting custom (localized) strings to Mac application menu and for hooking actions, such as displaying about and preferences windows and quitting the application.
All this works without problems, but now I seem to be stuck with adding another MenuItem to the application menu.
I think once I'll manage to add this extra MenuItem, hooking the appropriate action won't be difficult, but I don't have an idea how to add another menu item at all.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Best regards,
Albert

Hi, Prakash,
thank you for your answer, I looked at the bug reports from your links. Do you have any information on this API, can it be expected to come with stable release of 3.7.?
Thanks again, best regards,
Albert
