If "Display standard menus" is slected in the "Options" dialog, GenoPro won't display localized menu items. Only the menubar itself is OK.

Thank you for reporting this bug.  I am well aware of this bug, however there is nothing I can do at the moment.  The menus provided by Windows are a genuine piece of garbage - really.  I am being very polite and respectful of actually what the menus are.  It was a nightmare just to display icons in the menus, never mind the translated (localized) text.  The translation cannot be done in the menu itself; only by drawing the localized text when rendering the menu.  As a result, nothing is translated with the option "Display standard menus".  Fortunately many individuals prefer to display menu with icons which also enables the translation. 

The solution is writing the entire code to handle and display all menus - a task I won't undertake until I decide to remove the MFC framework.  I estimate at least 6 months of work for such task (MFC + Menus).
