Menu item name not saved

Hallo @Andreas_Hegenberg,

Describe the bug
The menu item name is not saved anymore, it stays as "." (dot).

It looks that the issue was solved before but is back now.

I guess it is the same described here - Floating menu item name/identifier rename

Weird it seems to save fine here, can you reproduce this with all menus?

//edit: I think I found a way to reproduce.

Could you check whether 5.488 solves this? (uploading now)

Yes, it is solved now.

@Andreas_Hegenberg It seems there is a version update problem, I can't get v5.488.
BTT says me that I'm on v5.482 and that latest stable version is 5.468 ? I never install any alpha version, so how can I have an installed version newer than the latest ?

5.488 is alpha, you can only get it by checking for alpha updates

Great ! bug fixed :slight_smile: thank you
