These methods are available on Menu objects. The ones that create choices on the menuhave their own particular options, discussed below under coption..add_cascade ( *coption )Add a new cascade element as the next available choice in self. Use the menu option inthis call to connect the cascade to the next level’s menu, an object of type Menu..add_checkbutton ( *coption )Add a new checkbutton as the next available choice in self. The options allow you toset up the checkbutton much the same way as you would set up a Checkbutton object(described above)..add_command ( *coption )Add a new command as the next available choice in self. Use the label, bitmap, orimage option to place text or an image on the menu; use the command option to connectthis choice to a procedure that will be called when this choice is picked..add_radiobutton ( *coption )Add a new radiobutton as the next available choice in self. The options allow you toset up the radiobutton much the same way as you would set up a Radiobutton object(described below)..add_separator()Add a separator after the last currently defined option. This is just a ruled horizontalline you can use to set off groups of choices. Separators are counted as choices, so if youalready have three choices, and you add a separator, the separator will occupy position3 (counting from 0)..delete ( index1, index2=None )This method deletes the choices numbered from index1 through index2, inclusive. Todelete one choice, omit the index2 argument. You can’t use this method to delete atear-off choice, but you can do that by setting the menu object’s tearoff option to 0..entrycget ( index, option )To retrieve the current value of some coption for a choice, call this method with indexset to the index of that choice and option set to the name of that option..entryconfigure ( index, *option )To change the current value of some coption for a choice, call this method with indexset to the index of that choice and one or more option=value arguments..index ( index )Returns the position of the choice specified by index. For example, you can use .index(END)to find the index of the last choice (or None if there are no choices)..insert_cascade ( index, *coptions )Inserts a new cascade at the position given by index, counting from 0. Any choices afterthat position move down one. The options are the same as for .add_cascade(), above.New Mexico Tech Computer Center Tkinter reference: The Menu widget Page 36
.insert_checkbutton ( index, *coptions )Insert a new checkbutton at position index. Options are the same as for.add_checkbutton()..insert_command ( index, *coptions )Insert a new command at position index.

Options are the same as for.add_radiobutton()..insert_separator ( index )Insert a new separator at position index..invoke ( index )Calls the command callback associated with the choice at position index. If a checkbutton,its state is toggled; if a radiobutton, that choice is set..type ( index )Returns the type of the choice specified by index: one of "cascade", "checkbutton","command", "radiobutton", "separator", or "tearoff".These are the possible values of the coption choice options used in the methods above:activebackgroundactiveforegroundbackgroundbitmapcolumnbreakcommandfontforegroundimagelabelmenuoffvalueThe background color used for choices when theyare under the mouse.The foreground color used for choices when theyare under the mouse.The background color used for choices when theyare not under the mouse.
