I'm using delphi 2009 and have created a popup menu.
object PopupMenu1: TPopupMenu
object lmm1: TMenuItem
Caption = 'lm/m'#178
end
end
as soon as i have a "²" in a popup menu, it'll appear as "lm/m²(L)". using maManual for AutoHotKeys doesn't help...it still appears the same way. it's like hotkeys because each menu item gets a new one.
"lm/m² (L)" "m/m² (M)" "am/m² (N)" "bm/m² (O)"
must i use "lm/m2" instead of "lm/m²" if i want the (L) to go away?
used internationally, i'd still expect the "²" would be displayed properly.
thank you for your help!

here's the solution i devised after studying/debugging the source of the TMenuItem.InternalRethinkHotkeys and TMenuItem.GetAutoHotkeys:
object PopupMenu1: TPopupMenu
Left = 184
Top = 272
object MenuItem1: TMenuItem
AutoHotkeys = maManual
Caption = 'lm/m'#178
end
end

The AutoHotKeys
property applies to keyboard accelerators when the ALT key is held down. What you are seeing is the TMenuItem.ShortCut
property at work instead. Make sure it is set to scNone
for any item you do not want "(#)" to appear on.
