The Wisej.NET MainMenu control contains a form's menu structure. It consists of MenuItem objects representing individual menu commands or submenus. Bind the MainMenu to a form by assigning it to the form's Menu property.
For multilingual support, use the RightToLeft property to display menu text appropriately for languages like Arabic.
Create different MainMenu objects for varied menu structures. Use CloneMenu to create reusable copies that can be modified for new menu structures.
For a full list of properties, methods and events see the API documentation.
