data Property

Specifies the menu items that must be displayed in the Menu.

Template is the standard key which can be used optionally to override the common menuItemTemplate provided with a specific template for the row. For template, always the value has to be valid box reference, if not it falls back to common menuItemTemplate.
metaInfo is another standard key which can be used to specify some meta information about the row. For example clickable and skin.
All write properties of the widget are allowed to be set as a part of the widget data while programming for the menu items.

Before proceeding, ensure that you have already created menu templates to be used in the data property.

To specify the values, click the Ellipsis button against the property to open the screen Master data for MenuBar.
Right-click on MenuBar Data preserve">var var select Add MenuItem. A Menu item is added.
Assign the Template Id and click Template Data to update the values for the properties displayed.
To add sub menu items, set the subMenucolumn false/true to the respective menu item. If the menu item is set to true you can add sub menu items. Right-click on the menu item and select Add MenuItem and update the data accordingly.
Once you are done, click OK.
