That really depends on what kind of menu you want. Dou you want it to be mouse controlled or keyboard controlled?

If it's mouse driven, I'd say that's the easiest to do. Here's an example menu:

NEW GAME

LOAD GAME

QUIT

Now, to do this, make each word a text actor; then place a Filled Region over each. Then for each of the Filled Regions make a Mouse Button Down event and then choose the actions you want to perform when the mouse button is clicked. (You could also use a Mouse Enter event for each Filled Region to do highlight effects as well. :) )

Sorry I can't be of any more help, but I don't know what you want your menu to do. :P

Create a normal actor, then, on the Actor Control window, click the "Text" button on the upper right portion. Here you can enter your text for your actor.

Also make sure to select a font for your text. To do so, click on "New Font" on the "Set Text" window. You can choose a True Type font on your machine or use your own custom bitmapped font.

Hope this helps you. :P
