<big>K</big>ickshaw e amogela dielemente tsa XML tse di latelang le maina a ponagalo, diboleng tsa ponagalo, le diteng tse di amanang le dielemente tse:

Di-ID tsa menyu tse di nang le dikwalwa tse di lolea di siame, mme jaaka ID nngwe le nngwe ya menyu di ka tlhagelela fela gangwe mo menyung.

Dimenyu tse di latelang di a tshwana mme di amogelwa ke Openbox le Kickshaw ka bobedi.

<tt><b>(1)</b> &lt;openbox_menu&gt;

      &lt;menu id="menu1" label="Menu1"&gt;
        &lt;item label="item"/&gt;
      &lt;/menu&gt;

      &lt;menu id="root-menu"&gt;
        &lt;menu id="menu1"/&gt;
      &lt;/menu&gt;

    &lt;/openbox_menu&gt;</tt>

<tt><b>(2)</b> &lt;openbox_menu&gt;

      &lt;menu id="root-menu"&gt;
        &lt;menu id="menu1" label="Menu1"&gt;
          &lt;item label="item"/&gt;
        &lt;/menu&gt;
      &lt;/menu&gt;

    &lt;/openbox_menu&gt;</tt>

Menyu e bonwa ka gale mo Kickshaw jaaka e ne e tla bonala mo Openbox, ka jalo ya bobedi ya dikai tse pedi e gaufi le mokgwa wa WYSIWYG. Mathata ke gore mo dimenyung tse dikgolo, se se ka dira gore faele ya menyu e lebege e le tlhakatlhakane. Ka ntlha ya moo, ka thulaganyetsoruri Kickshaw e boloka menyu ka gale ka sebopego sa ntlha (se se ka fetolwa mo diitlhophelong). Fa go bolokwa faele, porokeramo e dirisa matshwao a tab go tsenetsa ka thulaganyetsoruri, mme fa go buisiwa faele, go sa kgathalesege gore ditsenetso tse di ne di dirwa ka dibaka kgotsa matshwao a tab ga go botlhokwa, jaaka dibaka tse di lolea.

Menyu e ka nna le diponagalo tsa menyu tse di ganetsanang, jaaka mo sekaing se se latelang:

<tt>&lt;openbox_menu&gt;

  &lt;menu id="menu1" label="outside" icon="out.jpg" execute="out" /&gt;

  &lt;menu id="root-menu"&gt;
    &lt;menu id="menu1" label="inside" icon="in.jpg" execute="in" /&gt;
  &lt;/menu&gt;

&lt;/openbox_menu&gt;</tt>

Mo lebakeng le, Kickshaw e latela sekao sa Openbox mme e bontsha boleng jwa ponagalo ya icon go tswa mo teng ga menyu yamotheo, fa e bontsha diboleng tsa diponagalo tsa label le execute go tswa kwa ntle ga menyu yamotheo.
