Post by jesse » Thu Jun 23, 2011 6:59 pm

how would one customize the background color ( i have tried the background color in inspector it did not change anything, is this possible?
what about adding icons next to the text of the options that come in the drop down of the menu.

ICON - FILE
ICON - EDIT

Hi,

On non-Mac systems, you can use a stack panel as a menu. That will allow you to add icons.

To change the background colour (again not on Macs) change the background colour of the menubar group. You might have to set the transparent property to false.

Best,
