Change Calibre Behavior vs Preferences

juanalonso · 11-16-2021, 05:38 AM

Why does Calibre (5.32 on OSX 11.6.1) have two menu items, "Change calibre behavior" and "Preferences", that point to the same Preferences section? I find it confusing and I can't think of a good reason to do it intentionally. Perhaps it's a bug?

Thanks

It's for technical reasons having to do with Qt on macOS and how shortcuts are handled there.
