Not true - the system's WiFi menu updates while it is open. Perhaps you need to use a view-based menu item to achieve this? You can use NSMenuItem's -setView: method to attach a view to the item, then (I assume, I haven't done it myself) you can use the usual -setNeedsDisplay on that view to update it as necessary. --Graham _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
