Ok, as I just said in another email, ui merging is just something we dont have
GTK+ wide, its GtkUIManager specific, GtkBuilder supports a round-about
way of loading menus via a uimanager object, currently from Glade though;
supporting GtkUIManager as a dual standard for building menus and toolbars
is just not worth it IMO just for the silly merge feature.
Out of curiousity, what is it that makes a menu merged with uimanager
better than a menu with actions of which some are hidden ?
Cheers,
