different top nav for different roles - problem with weight. [#950090]

hi,

admin/build/themes/settings/rootcandy
navigation -> menu by role and weights

When creating top nav for a role, it seems it only appears if the weight is 1.
if we have two different roles, then we can't set both to 1. So the top nav only appears for the role that has weight 1.
It is not clear to me why we have 'weight' here. Isn't this section only for the the 'top nav' above the breadcrumb?

thanks,

it should work as:
if you have two roles, lets say admin and editor.
and then in settings they will be in the order:
admin
editor

1) if user with a role admin logs in - they will see theirs top nav set in the admin row, even if they are assigned to editor role too
2) if user with a role editor logs in (they shouldn't be in the role admin) - they should see the theirs top nav set in the editor row in theme settings

works as expected on my clean install

I can't see my top nav menu for a X role. I'm using 6.x-1.8 My profile with XX role can see the theme but the top nav menu just can't.

EDIT:

Ok I figure out why I can't see the menus. The problem (my problem because the theme works very well) was I need to move the role over the top list. EX:

- MyROLE
- authenticated
- anonymous

its all.
