Hi Christian,

Thanx for the sample code. I was pretty sure I would have to write my own class 
or event handler but just wanted to be sure that their wasn't a built in way.

About the menu bug, I cant say if it's a bug or rather just a weird default but 
if you look at:

http://demo.qooxdoo.org/current/demobrowser/#widget~MenuBar.html

You will see that if you click a button (e.g. File) and mouse over the menu 
that the button looses its blue (active/hovered) decoration. Only after mousing 
over another button and coming back does it take the correct decoration (blue). 
This seems to be the default behavior. It is a simple thing to fix but maybe a 
tad weird for a default.

On another note, I am very impressed with the toolkit, documentation and 
support.

Regards,
Jose

No, there is no property for this.

States are used for the appearance and decorator system, so you have to use the 
event handles for that. Have a look at the example below (playground).

Could you please post an example code to reproduce this?

Cheers,
Chris
