Greetings.

Even if the current beta (12a) has expired, there is a tiny error which I 
want to report herewith.

When runnning the "Re-Render Insert Menu Bitmaps" option, not all of these 
bitmaps are re-rendered. At least the "Mesh" shape isn't rendered again. I 
have not tested if other items were forgotten, as well.

Greetings,

Sven

On this same subject... Is a massive nested menus really the "best" way 
to do this? From my understanding (and experience), there have been 
issues with some things displaying at all and its complicated to find 
things. Maybe some consideration should be taken into shifting this from 
the menu bar to something like the All-in-One Sidebar thing someone came 
up with for Firefox. That way a simple click can hide or unhide it, just 
like the task bars in most Linux distros and we have something more 
visual to find and select things from. One of the main reasons I pretty 
much never use the menu is that I don't remember what on it and can't 
always find what I want easily when I do look.

Just a thought anyway, even if its not something that will make it into 
any short term version.
