I threw a small mainstack together and saved it. I used the menuBuilder to add a new menu (a default, "menu 
4") and populated it with a few menuItems (also defaults, "item 1", "item 2", etc. up to 
"item 6"). No other actions, just this build procedure.


But Menu 4 truncates the last two menuItems, so I only see 1-4. If I delete all 
but two, I see nothing, and in fact the menu itself disappears. If I add one 
more menuItem, (item 3 again) I see only item 1.


If I do not set the menu as a stack menu all the items are there as advertised (I am on a Mac). Going back 
and forth does nothing. The other default menus, "File", "Edit" and "Help", all 
are fine. A new session works the same way.


Anyone ever see this? I use custom menus all the time. No problem. LC v4.3.


It's a feature: in HIG-compliant apps the last menu is "Help", and the last menu item is "About" with second-to-last being a divider.

The menu will render unaltered on Linux and Windows, but since Mac is different it moves the last item to the application menu and removes the divider that had been above it.
