setting editmenus of stack to false is failing

I dont understand how I came into this situation: I can edit menus on mac, but the command "set the editmenus of this stack to false " does not hide the buttons and does not show the mac menu for the stack !
Any advice ?

Just to make sure, the "menuBar" property is not empty, right? It does not seem so per your post, but just checking.

Looking into the custom properties i found one: "editMenu" but probably wrong, if it should correspond with the
"set the editMenus" command. I tried to rename it to "editMenus" but that was not possible. I then deleted it and tried to make a new named "editMenus", but got a message: please enter a name, which doesn't clash with a built in custom property!
I further searched for the Menubar property, as it wasn't in the list I tried to create one, but got the same reply: couldn't be made, because it clashed with a built in property.

The property is internal to LC and the one you see in your stack was probably created accidentally when you mistyped the name. You can delete it.
Editmenus won't work until you assign the menubar to the stack. Do this if you haven't already:
Code: Select all
set the menubar of this stack to <name of menu group >
The menu builder has built-in checkboxes to handle all this for you.
