Set program name for OS X menu bar #39

Closed spieglt closed 6 years ago

spieglt commented 6 years ago

I'm trying to include a very basic menu bar, mostly just to be able to quit with Command-Q on OS X. The main menu has the title of my program, but the items under the menu say "Quit Wxgo" and "Hide Wxgo". How do I make it say "Quit MyProgram"? Attached is a picture of how it looks from the aui.go sample.

When calling the wx.NewApp(), please pass the program name that you want to show in the menubar, e.g. wx.NewApp("AUI App")

Thanks, that works, though it does make the second word lowercase. Any way to preserve casing? And how should I have found that functionality? I've been trying to just reference the wxWidgets documentation, but I don't see that argument in the constructor for the App class reference: http://docs.wxwidgets.org/3.1/classwx_app.html. Is this something specific to wxGo?

I'm not very familiar with macOS, so I can't give you an answer about the casing issue. And for the feature, actually it's a specific feature of wxGo, and we are indeed lack of documents about these things for now. I will try to make our wiki richer.

Much appreciated. Don't want to bother you with questions I can answer myself so just wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.
