DeleteAll does not work and all following lines do not work too:

Code:

Menu, Submenu, Add, Testitem, Label
Menu, DropDownMenu, Add, TestSubmenu, :Submenu
Menu, MainMenu, Add, File, :DropDownMenu
Gui, Menu, MainMenu
Gui, Show, Center w200 h100, Test

Menu, Submenu, DeleteAll
Menu, Submenu, Add, NewTestItem, Label

Label:
Return


Is it a bug?

Short answer: To solve this issue, detach the menu bar with "Gui Menu" prior to doing DeleteAll, then reattach it afterward with "Gui Menu, MainMenu".

Long answer:
There were two problems with the program:
1) No error message was displayed to indicate the failure of DeleteAll.
2) The documentation was wrong because it says you can use DeleteAll on a menu bar's submenus, which isn't always the case.

Both of these problems will be fixed in the next update, so thanks for reporting it. The updated documentation is:
Quote:
The use of certain destructive menu sub-commands such as Delete and DeleteAll against a menu that is currently being used as a menu bar (and in some cases, its submenus) is not supported and will cause an error dialog to be displayed (unless the UseErrorLevel setting is in effect). Use the following steps to make such changes: 1) detach the menu bar with "Gui Menu"; 2) make the changes; 3) reattach the menu bar with "Gui Menu, MyMenuBar".
