A permanently displayed menu following https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/#menubutton. It's exposed to help customization of the Menu component. If you use it separately you need to move focus into the component manually. Once the focus is placed inside the component it is fully keyboard accessible.

Props

Name	Type	Default	Description
autoFocus	bool	false	If `true`, will focus the `[role="menu"]` container and move into tab order.
autoFocusItem	bool	false	If `true`, will focus the first menuitem if `variant="menu"` or selected item if `variant="selectedMenu"`.
children	node		MenuList contents, normally `MenuItem`s.
disabledItemsFocusable	bool	false	If `true`, will allow focus on disabled items.
disableListWrap	bool	false	If `true`, the menu items will not wrap focus.
variant	'menu' \| 'selectedMenu'	'selectedMenu'	The variant to use. Use `menu` to prevent selected items from impacting the initial focus and the vertical alignment relative to the anchor element.

The ref is forwarded to the root element.
Any other props supplied will be provided to the root element (List).

Inheritance

While not explicitly documented above, the props of the List component are also available on MenuList. You can take advantage of this to target nested components.
