Menu bar — File / Edit / View / Insert / Format / Data / Help

A Google-Sheets-organized top menu bar sits above the toolbar; active items run real commands, not-yet-built items are visible but disabled with a "coming soon" tooltip, and persisted-mode-only items are locked in try mode.

What it does

A top menu bar sits above the toolbar, organized exactly like Google Sheets: File · Edit · View · Insert · Format · Data · Help. Every item is visible — nothing is hidden — but only items backed by a real, already-shipped command are clickable:

  • 🟢 Active — wired to the same seam the toolbar/keyboard already use (run/apply/applyBorders) or a thin, purely client-side action (New, Download, Full screen, Show gridlines/formula bar).
  • ◻️ Disabled ("coming soon") — the item renders, greyed, with a tooltip explaining it's not built yet. Clicking it does nothing.
  • 🔒 Locked ("requires a saved account") — Version history, Share, and Chart are gated on persisted/identified storage, which Studio doesn't have yet; they're disabled the same way, with a different tooltip.

File absorbs the old standalone "Save, load, export" toolbar button and its Import rows — there's exactly one home for those actions now.

Try it

Verified behavior

Matches Google Sheets: Google Sheets' real top menu bar is File · Edit · View · Insert · Format · Data · Tools · Extensions · Help, in that left-to-right order, each opening a dropdown of grouped commands (separators between groups, greyed rows for unavailable commands, a lock/cloud glyph on account-gated rows). Studio's menu bar matches that same relative order and grouping for the SEVEN menus scopes in (Tools and Extensions are out of scope — Studio has no add-ons/macros surface yet). Within each menu, items are grouped exactly as Sheets groups them (e.g. Undo/Redo, then Cut/Copy/Paste, then Delete values/rows/columns, then Clear formatting in Edit), separated by hairlines. A command Sheets shows greyed-out (e.g. "Merge cells" with nothing merge-able selected) still LOOKS like a menu item with a tooltip on hover explaining why it's unavailable — never hidden — which is the same visible-roadmap pattern this feature uses for not-yet-built commands.

All 7 menus render in Google-Sheets order and grouping

Given

When I click A1

Then

  • [data-testid="menu-bar"] is visible containing "FileEditViewInsertFormatDataHelp"

Clicking an active item (Edit > Undo) invokes the real existing command

Given

  • A1 = 10

When I type 99 into A1, then click menu item edit.undo

Then

  • A1 shows 10

Clicking an active item (Insert > Function) starts a real formula edit, and the SAME autocomplete dropdown then opens

Given

When I click A1, then click menu item insert.function, then press s

Then

  • [data-slot="formula-autocomplete"] is visible

A disabled item (Format > Conditional formatting) is visibly disabled and invokes nothing

Given

  • A1 = 10

When I click menu item format.conditionalFormatting

Then

  • A1 shows 10
  • [data-menu-item="format.conditionalFormatting"] is visible

Clicking Format > Merge cells merges the selection, through the SAME confirm-gated seam the toolbar's merge control uses

Given

  • A1 = Anchor

When I click A1, then press Shift+ArrowRight, then click menu item format.mergeCells, then click B1

Then

  • the active cell is A1

Clicking Edit > Clear formatting clears formatting without touching the value

Given

  • A1 = hello

When I click A1, then press Control+b, then click menu item edit.clearFormatting

Then

  • A1 shows hello
  • A1 is bold=false

Clicking Help > Keyboard shortcuts opens the shortcuts panel (a chrome-only action, not a registry command)

Given

When I click menu item help.shortcuts

Then

  • [data-testid="shortcuts-panel"] is visible

A submenu leaf (Format > Text > Underline) is reachable and runs its real command

Given

  • A1 = hello

When I click A1, then click menu item format.underline

Then

  • A1 is underline

A submenu leaf (Format > Number > Currency) is reachable and runs its real command

Given

  • A1 = 1234.5

When I click A1, then click menu item format.numberCurrency

Then

  • A1 shows 1234.5
  • A1 is numberFormat=currency

A checkbox item nested inside a submenu (View > Show > Show gridlines) is still reachable and clickable

Given

When I click menu item view.gridlines

Then

  • [data-menu-item="view.gridlines"] is visible
