    Question Prbblem changing gtk.MenuItem(gtk.Item) label

    Hi,

    consider the code:
    Code:
    #!/usr/bin/python
    
    import sys
    import gobject
    import gtk
    import appindicator
    
    def status_clicked(widget, event=None):
    	global ind
    	global status_item
    	print "status_clicked:",event
    	if ind.get_status() == appindicator.STATUS_ACTIVE:
    		ind.set_status(appindicator.STATUS_ATTENTION)
    		status_item.get_child().set_label("Change To Act")
    	else:
    		ind.set_status(appindicator.STATUS_ACTIVE)
    		status_item.get_child().set_label("Change To Att")
    	print "new label:", status_item.get_child().get_label()
    
    def destroy(widget, event=None):
    	print "destroyed"
    	sys.exit(0)
    
    if __name__ == "__main__":
    	ind = appindicator.Indicator ("example-simple-client",
    			"indicator-messages",
    			appindicator.CATEGORY_APPLICATION_STATUS)
    	ind.set_status (appindicator.STATUS_ACTIVE)
    	ind.set_attention_icon ("new-messages-red")
      	# create a menu
       	menu = gtk.Menu()
    
    	status_item = gtk.MenuItem("test")
    	status_item.connect("activate", status_clicked, "status clicked")
    	status_item.show()
    	menu.append(status_item)
    
    	quit_item = gtk.MenuItem("Quit")
    	quit_item.connect("activate", destroy, "file.quit")
    	quit_item.show()
    	menu.append(quit_item)
    
    	status_item.get_child().set_label("Change To Att")
    
      	ind.set_menu(menu)
    
        	gtk.main()
    before the
    Code:
    ind.set_menu(menu)
    the
    Code:
    status_item.get_child().set_label("Change To Att")
    changes the label.

    But the handle
    Code:
    status_clicked
    changes the label but isnt updated in the menu.

    I tried with status_item.[show(),show_now(),show_all(),map(),realize(),...] but nothing.

    What am I doing wrong?
    Thanks
