    Thanks Greg.   It worked.  (more or less)

You need to add the items to the menu bar's items collection:

     mb.getItems().add(iFile);
     mb.getItems().add(iHelp);

    Hi,

    I am struggling with simple menus in Pivot.
    What i need is to programmatic construct the menus.
    What is wrong with this code???
    Although the frame opens, the menu never shows.  (grrr)


@Override
    public void startup(Display display, Map<String, String>  properties) 
throws Exception {
        frame = new Frame();
        frame.setPreferredSize(new Dimensions(800, 600));

        MenuBar mb = new MenuBar();
        Item iFile = new Item("File");
        Item iHelp = new Item("Help");
        mb.add(iFile);
        mb.add(iHelp);
        frame.setMenuBar(mb);
        // mb.setShy(false)  // dammit

        frame.open(display);
    }
