<p>A <a class="link" href="GtkMenuShell.html" title="GtkMenuShell"><span class="type">GtkMenuShell</span></a> is the abstract base class used to derive the
<a class="link" href="GtkMenu.html" title="GtkMenu"><span class="type">GtkMenu</span></a> and <a class="link" href="GtkMenuBar.html" title="GtkMenuBar"><span class="type">GtkMenuBar</span></a> subclasses.</p>
<p>A <a class="link" href="GtkMenuShell.html" title="GtkMenuShell"><span class="type">GtkMenuShell</span></a> is a container of <a class="link" href="GtkMenuItem.html" title="GtkMenuItem"><span class="type">GtkMenuItem</span></a> objects arranged
in a list which can be navigated, selected, and activated by the
user to perform application functions. A <a class="link" href="GtkMenuItem.html" title="GtkMenuItem"><span class="type">GtkMenuItem</span></a> can have a
submenu associated with it, allowing for nested hierarchical menus.</p>
<div class="refsect2">
<a name="id-1.3.20.5.10.4"></a><h3>Terminology</h3>
<p>A menu item can be “selected”, this means that it is displayed
in the prelight state, and if it has a submenu, that submenu
will be popped up.</p>
<p>A menu is “active” when it is visible onscreen and the user
is selecting from it. A menubar is not active until the user
clicks on one of its menuitems. When a menu is active,
passing the mouse over a submenu will pop it up.</p>
<p>There is also is a concept of the current menu and a current
menu item. The current menu item is the selected menu item
that is furthest down in the hierarchy. (Every active menu shell
does not necessarily contain a selected menu item, but if
it does, then the parent menu shell must also contain
a selected menu item.) The current menu is the menu that
contains the current menu item. It will always have a GTK
grab and receive all key presses.</p>

<p>If <em class="parameter"><code>take_focus</code></em>
is <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#TRUE:CAPS"><code class="literal">TRUE</code></a> (the default) the menu shell will take
the keyboard focus so that it will receive all keyboard events
which is needed to enable keyboard navigation in menus.</p>
<p>Setting <em class="parameter"><code>take_focus</code></em>
to <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#FALSE:CAPS"><code class="literal">FALSE</code></a> is useful only for special applications
like virtual keyboard implementations which should not take keyboard
focus.</p>
<p>The <em class="parameter"><code>take_focus</code></em>
state of a menu or menu bar is automatically
propagated to submenus whenever a submenu is popped up, so you
don’t have to worry about recursively setting it for your entire
menu hierarchy. Only when programmatically picking a submenu and
popping it up manually, the <em class="parameter"><code>take_focus</code></em>
property of the submenu
needs to be set explicitly.</p>
<p>Note that setting it to <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#FALSE:CAPS"><code class="literal">FALSE</code></a> has side-effects:</p>
<p>If the focus is in some other app, it keeps the focus and keynav in
the menu doesn’t work. Consequently, keynav on the menu will only
work if the focus is on some toplevel owned by the onscreen keyboard.</p>
<p>To avoid confusing the user, menus with <em class="parameter"><code>take_focus</code></em>
set to <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#FALSE:CAPS"><code class="literal">FALSE</code></a>
should not display mnemonics or accelerators, since it cannot be
guaranteed that they will work.</p>

<em class="parameter"><code><a href="https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Basic-Types.html#gboolean"><span class="type">gboolean</span></a> with_separators</code></em>);</pre>
<p>Establishes a binding between a <a class="link" href="GtkMenuShell.html" title="GtkMenuShell"><span class="type">GtkMenuShell</span></a> and a <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gio/unstable/GMenuModel.html#GMenuModel-struct"><span class="type">GMenuModel</span></a>.</p>
<p>The contents of <em class="parameter"><code>shell</code></em>
are removed and then refilled with menu items
according to <em class="parameter"><code>model</code></em>
. When <em class="parameter"><code>model</code></em>
changes, <em class="parameter"><code>shell</code></em>
is updated.
Calling this function twice on <em class="parameter"><code>shell</code></em>
with different <em class="parameter"><code>model</code></em>
will
cause the first binding to be replaced with a binding to the new
model. If <em class="parameter"><code>model</code></em>
is <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS"><code class="literal">NULL</code></a> then any previous binding is undone and
all children are removed.</p>
<p><em class="parameter"><code>with_separators</code></em>
determines if toplevel items (eg: sections) have
separators inserted between them. This is typically desired for
menus but doesn’t make sense for menubars.</p>
<p>If <em class="parameter"><code>action_namespace</code></em>
is non-<a href="https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Standard-Macros.html#NULL:CAPS"><code class="literal">NULL</code></a> then the effect is as if all
actions mentioned in the <em class="parameter"><code>model</code></em>
have their names prefixed with the
namespace, plus a dot. For example, if the action “quit” is
mentioned and <em class="parameter"><code>action_namespace</code></em>
is “app” then the effective action
name is “app.quit”.</p>
<p>This function uses <a class="link" href="GtkActionable.html" title="GtkActionable"><span class="type">GtkActionable</span></a> to define the action name and
target values on the created menu items. If you want to use an
action group other than “app” and “win”, or if you want to use a
<a class="link" href="GtkMenuShell.html" title="GtkMenuShell"><span class="type">GtkMenuShell</span></a> outside of a <a class="link" href="GtkApplicationWindow.html" title="GtkApplicationWindow"><span class="type">GtkApplicationWindow</span></a>, then you will need
to attach your own action group to the widget hierarchy using
<a class="link" href="GtkWidget.html#gtk-widget-insert-action-group" title="gtk_widget_insert_action_group ()"><code class="function">gtk_widget_insert_action_group()</code></a>. As an example, if you created a
group with a “quit” action and inserted it with the name “mygroup”
then you would use the action name “mygroup.quit” in your
<a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gio/unstable/GMenuModel.html#GMenuModel-struct"><span class="type">GMenuModel</span></a>.</p>
<p>For most cases you are probably better off using
<a class="link" href="GtkMenu.html#gtk-menu-new-from-model" title="gtk_menu_new_from_model ()"><code class="function">gtk_menu_new_from_model()</code></a> or <a class="link" href="GtkMenuBar.html#gtk-menu-bar-new-from-model" title="gtk_menu_bar_new_from_model ()"><code class="function">gtk_menu_bar_new_from_model()</code></a> or just
directly passing the <a href="https://developer.gnome.org/gio/unstable/GMenuModel.html#GMenuModel-struct"><span class="type">GMenuModel</span></a> to <a class="link" href="GtkApplication.html#gtk-application-set-app-menu" title="gtk_application_set_app_menu ()"><code class="function">gtk_application_set_app_menu()</code></a> or
