Bug ID: 54217 Summary: SourceInsight: app menu doesn't work Product: Wine Version: 7.21 Hardware: x86-64 OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: user32 Assignee: wine-bugs@winehq.org Reporter: x1917x@gmail.com Distribution: ---
The menu bar has no reaction to any mouse clicks, acts like it is disabled.
The issue affects multiple apps, another app I know is Propellerhead Reason (https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=10845).
There was an experimental patch (from Rein Klazes in 2009) which used to fix the issue, but IIRC this patch was never accepted. Anyway, for many years it was enough to recompile Wine with that patch to have a working app menu... until recently. Now dlls/user32/menu.c code was heavily refactored so the patch cannot be applied even manually (all involved functions are gone etc).
To summarize:
- there is a bug which breaks app menu functionality for at least 2 apps - at this moment there is NO fix or workaround which can be applied anymore
The original bugreport for Propellerhead Reason is from 2007. A 15-year wine is nice, but a 15 years old bug in Wine is not - please, please do something with this issue.
