its not very easy and transparent to find out what menu item was clicked and what function is to be executed. A simple callback reference would be most convenient. Or at least a simple value to compare. Other advantage is that in case of international translations the code is not impacted

Have the menu act the same as a DropDown with detached Popup which lives in the document.body so it can expand over splitters and other things that hide the menu expansion.

Menu - set item highlighted when clicked 
Example: If I click HOME I want home remain highlighted, if I click another item set this item highlighted

Bug report

When openOnClick is enabled for the root Menu items and also the scrollable option is enabled, when moving the cursor over different subitems, previously hovered remains opened.

Reproduction of the problem

1. Open the Dojo
2. Click on Item 2
3. Hover over Sub Item 1
4. Hover over Sub Item 1.2
5. Move the cursor to hover over Sub Item 2

Current behavior

Both submenus remain opened - the one for SubItem 1 and for SubItem 2

Expected/desired behavior

The previously opened submenu (Subitem 1) should get closed.

I'd like to request the ability to add a public method with the functionality to focus on a specific menu item for navigation purposes.  

I'd like to request adding checkbox functionality to the Kendo UI Menu's api similar to the Kendo UI TreeView.  

Hi Team,

I would like to request adding a scrollbar option for the Kendo UI ContextMenu instead of the scroll buttons.

Thanks!

Hello Support Team,
I am currently trying to use the scroll feature of the context menu.
However, I find that the visibility of the context menu’s scroll arrows is too low.
When hovering the mouse over them, the color changes only slightly, which makes them hardly noticeable.

Would it be possible to make the color change more prominent so that the arrows stand out better?
Please see the attached screenshot and the Dojo example.

In addition, I believe the arrows are not very intuitive in terms of functionality.
It would be helpful if they could indicate more clearly whether there are additional items above or below.

Could you improve this feature?

Thanks!
