Dear list!

Can someone please tell me why my menu items are gray'ed out? It builds 10 menu items, all with the title 'Cocoa', as expected, but they are all gray and can't be clicked.

int menuNum;
NSMenuItem *menuItem;
for(menuNum=0; menuNum <10; menuNum ++)
{
menuItem = [[NSMenuItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Cocoa" action:@selector(deviceAction:)keyEquivalent:@""];
[menuItem setTarget:menuOutlet];
[deviceOutlet addItem:menuItem];
}

You may well have to setEnabled: YES on the items as well.
Alternatively, take a look at the NSMenuValidation protocol
for enabling and disabling menu items dynamically.

Best Wishes,
