  • subtext - (optional) a dimmed text displayed to the right of the main item's text, such as a hot key or other additional info
  • icon - (optional) the name of an icon displayed before the text. It converts to adding <i class={item.icon}>, so any icons with the wxi- prefix can be used here, e.g ".wxi-plus" or any customer icons defined on the page. Read more about the usage of icons
  • css- (optional) the name of a CSS class that will be applied to an item
  • type - (optional) the type of an item. It can be a predefined string such as "separator" or a custom Svelte component to render a menu item in place of the default renderer. Will be removed in SVAR 3.0 so use comp instead
  • data - (optional) an array of sub items for a menu item. Used to create a tree-like menu structure; the same as options
  • handler - (optional) a click handler function for the menu item. It receives an object with the parameters described here: onclick
