Hi Roger, The action is definitely enabled and works fine if it is contained within an enclosing menu. My menu bar has plenty of MenuBar.Item with menus within them which work fine, but what I want is to have a button to access an action directly on the menu bar, not within a menu on the menu bar (if that makes sense), a bit like a toolbar if you like.
