# Merging Menus

Get started with Menus and Toolbars for WinForms. Create versatile menus and docking/floating toolbars. See more in documentation here.

## Content



In some cases, when you need to merge a MDI child window with a MDI parent menu you can enable the [CanMerge](/componentone/docs/win/online-menus-toolbar/) property. You can also specify the type of behavior for the merging menu with its [MergeType](/componentone/docs/win/online-menus-toolbar/) property. You can determine whether to add, replace, remove, or merge menu items with the [MergeType](/componentone/docs/win/online-menus-toolbar/) property. The **MergeItems** causes the command links on the menus to be merged.

The command links for both menu items and toolbar buttons have a [MergeOrder](/componentone/docs/win/online-menus-toolbar/) property which can be used to determine the order of the merged menu items or toolbar buttons.

For more information about how to accomplish merging menus see, [Merging Menu Items](/componentone/docs/win/online-menus-toolbar/menusandtoolbarsforw2/menutasks/mergingmenuitems).
