##<paper-menu>

Material design: [Menus](https://www.google.com/design/spec/components/menus.html)

`` implements an accessible menu control with Material Design styling. The focused item
is highlighted, and the selected item has bolded text.

```html

  Item 1
  Item 2

```

An initial selection can be specified with the `selected` attribute.

```html

  Item 1
  Item 2

```

Make a multi-select menu with the `multi` attribute. Items in a multi-select menu can be deselected,
and multiple items can be selected.

```html

  Item 1
  Item 2

```

### Styling

The following custom properties and mixins are available for styling:

| Custom property | Description | Default |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `--paper-menu-background-color` | Menu background color | `--primary-background-color` |
| `--paper-menu-color` | Menu foreground color | `--primary-text-color` |
| `--paper-menu-disabled-color` | Foreground color for a disabled item | `--disabled-text-color` |
| `--paper-menu` | Mixin applied to the menu | `{}` |
| `--paper-menu-selected-item` | Mixin applied to the selected item | `{}` |
| `--paper-menu-focused-item` | Mixin applied to the focused item | `{}` |
| `--paper-menu-focused-item-after` | Mixin applied to the ::after pseudo-element for the focused item | `{}` |

### Accessibility

`` has `role="menu"` by default. A multi-select menu will also have
`aria-multiselectable` set. It implements key bindings to navigate through the menu with the up and
down arrow keys, esc to exit the menu, and enter to activate a menu item. Typing the first letter
of a menu item will also focus it.



##<paper-submenu>

`` is a nested menu inside of a parent ``. It
consists of a trigger that expands or collapses another ``:

```html

  
    Topics
    
      Topic 1
      Topic 2
      Topic 3
    
  
  
    Faves
    
      Fave 1
      Fave 2
    
  
  
    Unavailable
    
      Disabled 1
      Disabled 2
    
  

```

Just like in ``, the focused item is highlighted, and the selected
item has bolded text. Please see the `` docs for which attributes
(such as `multi` and `selected`), and styling options are available for the
`menu-content` menu.
