screen grab of the Application Title setting

When creating a standalone application, the Application Title set in the branding of a project is not the title used for the application when it is running (as I would expect). Instead the Branding Name (which set in the project Properties under Category Applications) is used. But the Branding Name cannot have spaces or capitals. This is particularly a problem on OSX because the application name is displayed on the menubar. 


Can you please tell me where I need to make the change in the config files of a OSX application package so that I can at least have a workaround to satisfy my client.
