preferences not available in standard location in Mac version 1.1.22

[iay]

The 1.1.22 release notes had an item "Preferences have had has a face lift with new icons". However, on my Mac, the actual effect seems to be that the Preferences (Cmd+,) option is no longer available at all: the keypress does nothing, and the option is greyed out in the menu.

I cannot reproduce this on my VM.

Can you produce a screenshot? If you run it from the source, do you get any output?

You're statement is also confusing. Preferences are opened with Cmd+P, not Cmd+,. And I'm not aware of anything disabling the option. Is it available in the Window menu?

OK, I understand now. Yes, pyfa 1.1.22 does implement the preferences selection as Cmd+P, and that does appear in the Window menu. I must have found it there before at some point.

However, that's contrary to the Mac OS user interface guidelines. Mac users expect preferences to be invoked by Cmd+, and expect to find that under the application menu.

Here's a screenshot showing how pyfa currently behaves: you can see that there is a Preferences option in the application menu, and it is assigned to Cmd+, but greyed out.

It would be a convenience for Mac users if you could bind the preferences to Cmd+, as well as to Cmd+P. I'll rename the issue.

Thanks for the info. You can probbly tell we're not mac users lol. I'll fix this soon =)

Fixed with 23e6331. It's in the application menu now, but also still in the Window menu for :reasons:. Hope this helps, should be out in the next release (if you want it now, apply changes in commit to pyfa package)

=)
