Control the Display of Menus on the Menu Bar

property for a workspace to On to display the menu bar each time a workspace
is set current. For information about creating and editing pull-down menus,
see

Control the Display of Palettes
You set up a workspace to control the display, position, and appearance of
palettes in the application window. They can be floating or docked. Unlike
ribbon panels, ribbon tabs, and menus, palettes are available in any workspace.
You can turn palettes on or off with a workspace. The display properties of
palettes are modified through the Workspace Contents and Properties pane.
