<h3>The <code>Electron.Menu</code> and <code>MenuItem</code> can be used to create custom native menus.</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>There are two kinds of menus: the application (top) menu and context (right-click) menu.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>You find the sample source code in <code>Controllers\MenusController.cs</code>.</p>

<p>The <code>Electron.Menu</code> and <code>MenuItem</code> allow you to customize your application menu. If you don't set any menu, Electron will generate a minimal menu for your app by default.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>This app uses the code below to set the application menu. If you click the 'View' option in the application menu and then the 'App Menu Demo', you'll see an information box displayed.</p>

<h2>ProTip</h2>
|
|
<strong>Know operating system menu differences.</strong>
|
|
<p>When designing an app for multiple operating systems it's important to be mindful of the ways application menu conventions differ on each operating system.</p>
|
|
<p>For instance, on Windows, accelerators are set with an <code>&</code>. Naming conventions also vary, like between "Settings" or "Preferences". Below are resources for learning operating system specific standards.</p>

|
<p>A context, or right-click, menu can be created with the <code>Electron.Menu.SetContextMenu()</code> and <code>MenuItem</code> as well. You can right-click anywhere in this app or click the demo button to see an example context menu.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>In this demo we use the <code>ipcRenderer</code> module to show the context menu when explicitly calling it from the renderer process.</p>
|
|
<p>See the full <a href="http://electron.atom.io/docs/api/web-contents/#event-context-menu">context-menu event documentation</a> for all the available properties.</p>
