Currently there is no easy way to paste copied/cut button to a bar which is shown as menu, as well as to copy a button from it.
To make it work without disable/enable "Show as menu" option each time I copy or paste a button to such bar, for each bar I made "Open this bar..." button which allows to open a bar even when it shown as menu (a button with OPENBAR C:\totalcmd\mybarasmenu.BAR command) and then I copy/cut/paste buttons in opened bar.
Unfortunately, a path to each bar is unique, so it takes some time to make such button for each bar.
My suggestions:
1. Add into context menu of bar as menu the options to copy, cut and paste the button.
2. Because I share some bars with older TC versions, I'll have to create such "Open this bar..." buttons anyway. To make it more easy the process of creation of such button, I suggest to add a possibility to copy the path of bar from "Button bar:" field of "Chang button bar" dialog.

Using the Button Bar Editor from Ultra TC Editors makes this job much easier.

It's not a secret - it is mentioned in the Help:Nice, I didn't know about Shift!
Dialog box: Configuration - Change button bar

Show as menu: Only for .bar files: Show linked button bar file as a popup menu instead of switching to the new bar. Use Shift to use the other option, e.g. show bar as menu if this option isn't checked.

The bar is only set temporarily, not stored in wincmd.ini. Just close and re-open Total Commander to return to the main bar.But I need then to go back to my previous bar.
