Chapter 10 errata #4
Description
Adding accelerators
- In the definition of GenericMainMenu, the accelerator for "New Record" is listed as 'Ctrl+R', but the corresponding keybind is 'Control-n'. A similar mistake occurs in MacOsMainMenu. FWIW, I think Ctrl+N makes more sense.
Building the macOS menu
listing: # mainmenu.py, inside MacOSMainMenu._build_menu()
- We call self.add_cascade() for the File menu, but this shouldn't be necessary since we iterate through the self._menus dictionary at the end. (I don't have a Mac so I have not verified this issue).
Misc
- Testing this out on Windows, it looks like
fieldbackgroundfor the LoginDialog widget might not be supported. The background for the name and password entries remains white in the invalid state.
