The application menu 2010 can be opened by clicking the menu button in the upper-left corner of the Ribbon.

The following code assumes that you have already dropped a WinToolbarsManager™ component from the toolbox onto the form and the FileMenuStyle property of ultraToolbarsManger.Ribbon object is set to ApplicationMenu2010.
The example code demonstrates how to create a button tool, PopupMenu tool and PopupControlContainer tool, add them to the tools collection of ultraToolbarsManager component, and then add them to the navigation menu area of the application menu 2010. For the following example an ultraMonthViewMulti control is added to the form that is set to the Control property of the PopupControlContainerTool.
