# Description
Use the show menubar command to display the menu bar if it has been hidden. For example, if the menu bar is hidden, you might want to show it only if the user moves the mouse to the top of the screen.
The menu bar can be hidden only on Mac OS systems. This command has no effect on Windows or Unix systems.
Hiding the menu bar in LiveCode does not affect its appearance in other applications; if the user switches to another application, the menu bar becomes visible. If the user switches back to LiveCode, the menu bar is hidden again.
