Dear Djamila,

I've no experience in Clim 2.0 
but in Clim 1.1 under LUCID 
I got WITH-MENU to work:


(in-package :clim-user)

(let (menu1)
  (with-menu
   (menu *root-window*)
   (setf menu1 menu)	;; save to de-expose it later
   (size-menu-appropriately
    menu
    :width *menu-width*
    :height *menu-height*
    :right-margin *menu-width*
    :bottom-margin *menu-height*
    )
   (window-expose menu)
   (force-output menu)

   ;; ... do some in-/output on stream bound to menu

   )
  (setf (window-visibility menu1) nil) ;; de-expose
  (force-output menu1)
  )



Thomas.
