MainMenu not visible when running the program (XE7)  
News Group: embarcadero.public.delphi.ide

I can drop a TMainMenu on a form and configure it.  When I run the program the menu doesn't appear on the form.  Any Ideas?

One idea (besides the other two suggestions) would be to ask in a VCL or
FMX related newsgroup on this server, as your issue is related to those
GUI frameworks and not the Delphi IDE as such.

Greetings and good luck finding a solution

Check if the TMainMenu component is assigned to the Menu property of the 
form

What is the formstyle and the borderstyle of the form? bsDialog as
border does not allow a main menu, for example...
