A menu bar, if a window has one, is typically drawn across the top of the window just below the tab and a window typically has just a single menu bar, although this is up to you. One menu bar attached to a window is considered to be the "key" menu bar that can be navigated by the user using the keyboard. The last menu bar attached to a window is automatically set as the key menu bar for the window. To override this behavior and set a different key menu bar use the BWindow::SetKeyMenuBar() method. When either the \key{Menu} key or \key{Command}+\key{Esc} keys are pressed the key menu bar opens and focuses it's first menu item, typically a BMenu. Once the menu bar is open the user can navigate around the attached menus and menu items using the arrow keys. Like a BMenu, a BMenuBar object starts without any items attached to it, you'll need to call AddItem() or AddList() to add some. The top-level items in a menu bar are typically menus which have menu items and menus added to them in turn. \since BeOS R3 */ /*! \fn BMenuBar::BMenuBar(BRect frame, const char* name, uint32 resizingMode, menu_layout layout, bool resizeToFit) \brief Create a new BMenuBar object. The default resizing mode, \c B_FOLLOW_LEFT_RIGHT | \c B_FOLLOW_TOP is meant to be used by a typical menu bar that is positioned along the top edge of a window. This resizing mode allows the menu bar to resize itself based on changes to the window's width while keeping it attached to the top of the window frame. For menu bars in \c B_ITEMS_IN_ROW layout the height is automatically set to be the height of a single item, while menus bars in \c B_ITEMS_IN_COLUMN layout the width is automatically set to be the width of the widest item. The width of a menu bar is set equal to the width of its parent for menu bars in \c B_ITEMS_IN_ROW layout and a \a resizingMode mask that includes \c B_FOLLOW_LEFT_RIGHT so that the menu bar will always be as wide as its attached window. Likewise, the height of a menu bar is set equal to the height of its parent for menu bars in \c B_ITEMS_IN_COLUMN layout and a \a resizingMode mask that includes \c B_FOLLOW_TOP_BOTTOM so that the menu bar will always be as high as its attached window. When \a resizeToFit is set to \c true, as is the default, the \a frame rectangle determines only where the menu bar is located, not its size. If the \a layout is set to \c B_ITEMS_IN_MATRIX the \a resizeToFit flag should be set to \c false. \param frame The \a frame rectangle to create the menu bar in. \param name The \a name of the menu bar, used internally only. \param resizingMode The resizing mode flags, see BView for more details. \param layout The menu layout, possibilities include: - \c B_ITEMS_IN_ROW items are displayed in a single row, - \c B_ITEMS_IN_COLUMN items are displayed in a single column, - \c B_ITEMS_IN_MATRIX items are displayed in a custom matrix. \param resizeToFit Whether or not the menu bar should automatically resize itself to fit its contents, this will not work in \c B_ITEMS_IN_MATRIX layout. \since BeOS R3 */ /*! \fn BMenuBar::BMenuBar(const char* name, menu_layout layout, uint32 flags) \brief Create a new BMenuBar object suitable to use with the layout APIs. \param name The \a name of the menu bar, used internally only. \param flags The view \a flags, see BView for more details. \param layout The menu layout, possibilities include: - \c B_ITEMS_IN_ROW items are displayed in a single row, - \c B_ITEMS_IN_COLUMN items are displayed in a single column, - \c B_ITEMS_IN_MATRIX items are displayed in a custom matrix. \since Haiku R1 */ /*! \fn BMenuBar::BMenuBar(BMessage* archive) \brief Archive constructor. \param archive The message data to construct the menu from. \since BeOS R3 */ /*! \fn BMenuBar::~BMenuBar() \brief Destructor.
