Dock menu weirdness

Hi everybody,

I wrote a small app that has a dynamic Dock menu. At first, I thought, I did something wrong because sometimes some items were selectable when I did not set an action.

But then I tried this:

-(id)init
{
[super init];
if (self == nil) return nil;
numberOfItemsInDockMenu = 0;
[NSApp setDelegate:self];
return self;
}

- (NSMenu *)applicationDockMenu:(NSApplication *)sender
{
int i;
NSMenuItem *tmpItem;
NSMenu *tmpMenu = [[[NSMenu allocWithZone:[NSMenu zone]] initWithTitle:
@"Menu"] autorelease];
numberOfItemsInDockMenu++;

for (i = 0; i < numberOfItemsInDockMenu; i++)
{
tmpItem = [[[NSMenuItem alloc] initWithTitle:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"Item %d", i] action:nil keyEquivalent:@""] autorelease]
;
[tmpMenu addItem:tmpItem];
}
return tmpMenu;
}

When there are less than 62 or more than 93 items in the Dock menu, everything is fine. But from 62 to 93 items, there is a group of selectable items in the menu that gets less the higher the number. And there are definetely no actions for these menu items.
Even setEnabled:NO doesn't do the trick.

Am I doing something wrong or is that just plain a bug?

Sebastian
