Description:
There is an inconsistency in the Spanish translation of the main menu bar. When the setting "window.titleBarStyle" is set to "custom", the top-level menu items (File, Edit, Selection, View, etc.) are displayed in English. However, the items inside those menus (submenus) are correctly translated into Spanish.If I change "window.titleBarStyle" back to "native", the entire menu bar is correctly translated to Spanish. This suggests a bug in how the custom title bar renders localized strings.
- Steps to Reproduce:
- Install the Spanish Language Pack for VS Code.
- Set the display language to Spanish.
- Set "window.titleBarStyle" to "custom" in Settings.
- Observe that the top menu bar (File, Edit, etc.) is in English.
- Click on any menu; observe that the dropdown content is in Spanish.
- Change "window.titleBarStyle" to "native" and observe that the problem disappears.
Expected Behavior:
The top menu bar should be translated to Spanish regardless of the titleBarStyle setting.
