I've chosen an *.ico and it worked as intended.
No it doesn't. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mnemonics_(keyboard)

Thank you for ShowMemoryViewer(), it's very handy :)

Sorry, now I understand. :)
Yeah, image menus + mnemonics work partially here, but not as intended... your right.

What the ??
That's a huge basic bug! How is it possible that this got into the final?

Just noticed, that the PB IDE menu commands are missing their mnemonics (underlined characters)
Running the Menu.pb example, also doesn't display them.

Just tried a few previous versions of PB (4.41, 4.3, 4.2) and none had the mnemonics in IDE or Menu.pb example.

I'm on Win7 32bit.
I'm fairly sure it used to work, but it may be since I've gone to Win7.

Just done a search on Google.
Win7 Hides them by default. Yet a few programs display them anyway. (Firefox)
Here's how to display them again.

Yes, your right. The mnemonics in the IDE 4.50 don't work either. You can show them by pressing the Alt-key but they simply don't work.

Please fix this!

Yes, they do work(even when you can't see them). But you can only see them when pressing Alt-key. They only don't work together with CreateImageMenu()

Is this the bug report for the image menu mnemonics issue? http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtop ... =4&t=42407

Even in that thread, the issue seems confused by some folks. Have we gotten any feedback from the PB team on this yet?

As was pointed out, it appears even the PB IDE has the issue.

PB's IDE was written with PB. :)

We're just pointing out one of the oversights in the Fabulous PB.

Well it's just that my current project uses image menus and because of this I have to use a normal one instead because it's a small but noticeable bug.
