Pull Request for Issue #43214
To make the Menu - All Menu Items screen batch message clearer/easier to understand and follow.

Summary of Changes

Changed com_menus.ini text string to make it easier to understand action...

While testing Joomla 5.1.0. RC1 during/after the Release Testing meeting, I came across a not so easy to understand message...

I needed to test Batch operations in the Menus Area and I happen to click on All Menu Items...
There, I selected the 'Blog' menu entry (created for me when I installed the Sample Data set), then clicked on Actions --> Batch.

The explanation message (which feels like an error or at least a notice/warning etc yet is not in orange etc ) says:

Batch process the selected menu items
To use batch processing, please first select a Menu in the manager.

yet, that last line is confusing...

It should say:

To use batch processing, please first select the - Select Menu - entry in the dropdown menu above on this screen.

Testing Instructions

Just that the string is updated.

Check if need be the video:

Actual result BEFORE applying this Pull Request

To use batch processing, please first select a Menu in the manager.

Expected result AFTER applying this Pull Request

To use batch processing, please first select the - Select Menu - entry in the dropdown menu above on this screen.

This is not correct. You could also select a menu in the sidebar menu

In German the message is something like "Please select a Menu".
I think this is better (when correct english). It is the users's choice where he wants to specify the menu, in the manager or in the filter bar.
