ESC key shortcut and ShowFullScreen

I have a menu item in the PythonCard slideshow sample created with the following string 'Stop Slides\tESC' that on the Mac the shortcut is getting turned into what looks like the power key as shown by the attached screenshot.

While I'm on the subject of slideshow, I was wondering if the Frame.ShowFullScreen method is going to get implemented on the Mac? I know I've brought this up in the past and thought I had a wxWidgets bug request for it, but couldn't find it. It looks like many of the Mac bug reports I have open can probably be closed as of 2.5.2.x so let me know if you need a list of SF ids to check so they can be closed out by Kevin O. or Stefan.

The power button is the ultimate ESCape, right? :wink: Sounds like a bug to me.

If you can verify that they are no longer an issue then you should be able to close the bug report (if you are the author of it.) Otherwise you can add a note to it and whoever is monitoring the bug report can deal with it from there.

I couldn't find it either, anyway I've committed now a first attempt at an
implementation, I have not yet added code for NOTOOLBAR and NOSTATUSBAR, but
the rest should be working

Best,

Actually, I did notice that the icon was not exactly the same as the power button icon, but had no idea that was what they decided to use for ESC. Anyway, there is still a problem. In the slideshow sample if I use the \tESC shortcut sequence for defining the menu item then selecting the menu item never registers an event either via the mouse or pressing the ESC key, which is what through me off in the first place. If I remove the ESC shortcut, the menu item works as expected.
