Description
Menus in Windows have a sidebar to the left of the menu items (or to the right if the application is configured for a right-to-left locale). This space is reserved for an image or check mark associated with the menu item.
You can use the BackColorSidebar property to define a color for this sidebar. However, if ImgSidebar defines a background image for the sidebar, BackColorSidebar is ignored.
If you specify the property without a value, the sidebar is suppressed. For example
[application] menu-umenu(backcolorsidebar="")
Setting BackColorSidebar
In usys.ini:
[application] menu=umenu(font=SansMedium;backcolorsidebar=skyblue;backcolorselect=skyblue)
