+    Demo - A Custom Menubar Element Simulated Using ButtonMenu Elements
+
+    Because a Menubar is created by the OS and not the underlying GUI framework, the
+    ability to customize the look and feel of the standard Menubar is not possible.
+
+    Additionally, the Titlebar Element and the Meny Element don't work well together.
+    The order gets swapped.
+
+    One way to get around all of the problems above is to simulate a Menu Element.
+    That's exactly what this demo does.
+
+    The color choice for the menubar background and text use the theme's button colors.
+    You can change these color choices by changing the Menubar in the layout.
