IDE Addin and TPopupMenu

I don't know if it does this with other components as well but with a popup menu when I type in the caption for a menu item only the first letter is being used to set the name eg

Caption = Set Alarm
Name = S1

Roy,

Not quite what your referring to here and how it relates to "IDE Addin" in
the Subject.

We do have a demo of replacing the Addict PopupMenu if that is what you are
referring to: http://www.addictivesoftware.com/other-downloads.htm  

Otherwise a bit more info would be good :)

OK - I installed the Addict IDE addin to allow me to spell check component captions etc. It has an interesting side effect. Drop a TPopupMenu onto a form. Double click it to add menu items. Click on the blank menu item given you. Move across to the object inspector and type in a caption.

Expected behaviour is that as you type the caption it is "echoed" in the name property suffixed (generally) with 1.

Actual behaviour is the first character only of the caption is used.

However, if rather than typing in the caption property in the object inspector you click the button provided by Addict and type into their "form" (I guess you'd call it then when you click Accept you get the full text typed (stripped of any crlf).

Enough?

Ah - that is curious - I'll have a look on Monday - btw which IDE did you
encounter this (it may not matter of course)
