menu seperator had label

[David D Lowe]

Binary package hint: glade-3

Here are the steps to reproduce the problem using Glade 3.4.1:
- Create a new window, add a menu bar to it.
- Right click the menu bar, click edit
- Add an image stock preferences menu item after gtk-delete in the Edit menu.
- Add a menu item betwenn the preferences menu item and the gtk-delete menu item
- By default this menu item is of type Normal, change the label to something else, in my case "menutiemHaha"
- Now change the type to seperator.
- Save
In glade, the menu item will appear as a seperator, however, when using the glade file in a simple python pygtk app, the item will appear as a normal menu item, with a label.
Upon examining the glade file in a text editor, I found the offending piece of XML:
<widget class="GtkSeparatorMenuItem" id="menuitem6">
 <property name="visible">True</property>
 <property name="events">GDK_POINTER_MOTION_MASK | GDK_POINTER_MOTION_HINT_MASK | GDK_BUTTON_PRESS_MASK | GDK_BUTTON_RELEASE_MASK</property>
 <property name="label" translatable="yes">menuitemHaha</property>
 <property name="use_underline">True</property>
</widget>
The element property with the name "label" should have been deleted.

Attached is the glade file generated by Glade and not edited by hand.

do you have the same with glade-3 from hardy?

[David D Lowe (flimm)]

Yes, I just tested, I have the same problem with Glade 3.4.5 on Hardy.
BTW, to fix the flawed XML that was generated, I had to delete both:
<property name="label" translatable="yes">menuitemHaha</property>
and
<property name="use_underline">True</property>

Reset status from Incomplete to New, since I've answered the question.

thanks will send this upstream.

Tested in Glade 3.6.0 (Jaunty) - the menu editor no longer allows a menuitem to be changed after it is created so this cannot be reproduced. Thanks for the bug report.
