How do you add icons for menu items?
Hi tturner43,
icons in menus are not (yet) supported, sorry.

Can you adjust the color of the menus?

Hi,
On MS Windows, you can adjust the backColor of the menu group to change the colour of the menus.
Also on Windows, you could use a stack panel instead of a regular menu to show a menu with icons. You can't do this on Mac.
Kind regards,
Mark

I can create a menu button that uses a stack as its menu, and it works on OS X (at least testing in the IDE). Are you referring to other menus, like the main menubar?

Chipp has a LiveCode plugin that is based on some of my code that does this for Windows. Here's the URL:
