Building a StripeMenuBar

Create a StripeMenuBar by passing in the style you created or the Skin that you added style to.

StripeMenuBar menuBar = new StripeMenuBar(stage, style);

Make sure to add it to your layout. Typically the menu bar is positioned at the top of the screen.

Table root = new Table();
root.setFillParent(true);
stage.addActor(root);

root.top();
root.add(menuBar).growX();

You can design your menu elements using the Builder
