DESCRIPTION

Exposes the C++ menu_info struct as a native map.

FIELDS

font_size

A floating point number containing the font size (in points).

f_family

A string, the font family.

f_style

A string, the font style.

background_color

An rgb_color object representing the menu background color.

separator

A integer representing the style of the menu separator. BeOS R5 supported 0, 1, or 2 here. As far as I can tell, Haiku ignores this value.

click_to_open

A boolean, controls whether clicking on an item will open its submenu. As far as I can tell, Haiku ignores this value and always opens a submenu when you click on the controlling item.

(I'm sure there is an interesting history behind this option; some novel use of menus that made not opening the submenu a good idea.)

triggers_always_shown

A boolean, indicates whether menu triggers are shown. Defaults to false.
