# menuIndicator(_:)

Sets the menu indicator visibility for controls within this view.

## Declaration

```swift
nonisolated func menuIndicator(_ visibility: Visibility) -> some View

```

## Parameters

- `visibility`: The menu indicator visibility to apply.

## Discussion

Discussion Use this modifier to override the default menu indicator visibility for controls in this view. For example, the code below creates a menu without an indicator: Menu {     ForEach(history , id: \.self) { historyItem in         Button(historyItem.title) {             self.openURL(historyItem.url)         }     } } label: {     Label("Back", systemImage: "chevron.backward")         .labelStyle(.iconOnly) } primaryAction: {     if let last = history.last {         self.openURL(last.url)     } } .menuIndicator(.hidden) note: On tvOS, the standard button styles do not include a menu indicator, so this modifier will have no effect when using a built-in button style. You can implement an indicator in your own ButtonStyle implementation by checking the value of the menuIndicatorVisibility environment value.
