Hi, you should give more info about which platform you use and which Upp version. Here, on Linux with latest svn it work and the color of menu bar is changed(kind of green). If you want to change also the "menu" color you have to write something like:

menu_style.popupbody = Color(191,227,3);

See all members of MenuBar::Style and try to play with they to see how they behave.
P.S.: i think Menu is an instance of MenuBar, no?
Add your code in constructor of example 7 from Manual and report if it work or not. I think there should be no problems with that. (Don't forgot to use lower-case if you put your code in example 7 Menu->menu) Smile

Modify colors from my code to see which part of menu is changed.

	MyAppWindow() {
		Title("My application with menu").Sizeable();
		static MenuBar::Style menu_style = MenuBar::StyleDefault();
		menu_style.look = Color(191,227,3);
		menu_style.popupbody = Color(191,227,3);
		menu_style.topitem[2] = Color(191,2,3);
		menu_style.topitem[1] = Color(10,200,3);
		menu_style.topitem[0] = Color(100,255,33);
		menu_style.item = Color(25,100,25);
		menu.SetStyle(menu_style);
		AddFrame(menu);
		menu.Set(THISBACK(MainMenu));

	}
