Comment(by pprahul):
So, I am a bit confused on what to be done with this bug. [[BR]]
From what I have seen from the code, these are my conclusions. Please
point out where I've gone wrong, so that we can improve the code. [[BR]]
1. The BMenuField should automatically truncate the text (which is a
common property, and nothing related to this bug). But it doesn't do the
same function (truncate) here (WRT PreferredAppMenu). [[BR]]
If that is the case, then : I can't find any explicit call to
TruncateString() , neither from BMenuField, nor from
PreferredAppMenu.cpp.[[BR]]Could this be the cause of this problem ?[[BR]]
2. Or else, the BMenuField is working properly (and truncates too), but
WRT PreferredAppMenu it is not truncated properly. [[BR]]
If that is the case, then we will need to make a specific change, only for
PreferredAppMenu, which I don't think is the best way out. [[BR]]
What is your take on this ?
