Hello!

Language Reference (in RB555 at least) says you cannot have more than
255 menus. Is this true on ly for menubars or also true for menuitems
?

Thanks!

This was a limit with the non-Carbon menu manager, which was imposed on
the Carbon framework for some time. The code was refactored to support
more menus in Carbon in REALbasic 2005 at some point, but I can't say
for sure which release it was.

HTH,
