Reported by Andriy.Tsykholyas, Jun 13, 2008

If the application is launched on Mac with system property
"apple.laf.useScreenMenuBar" set to "true", JMenuItemFixture.click() fails
to click on menu.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Compile and launch the attached test application.

Expected result: menu should be clicked and show its content.
Actual result: FEST fails to click on menu. It tries to click right below
the frame title. The menu content is not shown.

Tested on FEST 1.0a2, Mac OS X 10.5

It is quite natural for Java apps running on Mac to display the menu bar in the Mac
screen menu bar.

Also, some legacy apps may use "com.apple.macos.useScreenMenuBar" system property
(which is now deprecated).

We are currently using following workaround:

If OS is Mac and screen menu bar is used, we call
JMenuItemFixturemenu.target.doClick()
instead of
JMenuItemFixture.click()

Thank you so much for the detailed explanation...it makes it a lot easier to fix! :)

We'll include the fix for this bug in our next release (1.0a3...we expect to release
it next week)

Many thanks!

Working on a fix. It seems that getting the position of a JMenu when positioned in
the screen menu bar doesn't work. We can fall back to Andriy workaround to call
'doClick' :)

I found a message from Simeon Fitch that reported this bug on May 22nd.

Set the module as a label, instead of being part of the title.
