Hi Pete,

Why do you want a different way? The menu builder still is the easiest way to 
create a menu, even if it is unintuitive and buggy. Next time, just don't 
uncheck that checkbox :-)

Surely, you can create a group, set the menubar of the stack to the name of 
that group and set the editmenus of your stack to true or false and adjust the 
locations of all other objects manually.
