Description Pedro Villavicencio 2009-06-16 18:33:04 UTC 
this report has been filed here:

https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-utils/+bug/388033

"After opening gnome dictionary and before looking up any words, the gnome dictionary Go menu not accessible.

This is against the GNOME HIG: "Do not disable menu titles. Allow the user to explore the menu, even though there might be no available items on it at that time."

http://library.gnome.org/devel/hig-book/stable/menus-menubar.html.en

Steps to reproduce

1. Open Gnome dictionary
2. Try to open Go menu

What happens

3. Go menu is not accessible

Expected behavior

3. Go menu should be accessible and explorable, even though all menu items are disabled."

Thanks,
