Paste this into your main.qml, and this should get you started.  The first action on the Application Menu will be "My Sheet" and will open a sheet that says "This is my sheet stuff" and there will be a close button on the bottom.  Help it helps.

import bb.cascades 1.0

TabbedPane {
    Menu.definition: MenuDefinition {

        // Specify the actions that should be included in the menu
        actions: [
            ActionItem {
                title: "My Sheet"
                // imageSource: ""
                onTriggered: {
                    mysheet.open();
                }
            },
            ActionItem {
                title: "Settings"
                // imageSource: ""
                onTriggered: {
                    //
                }
            },
            ActionItem {
                title: "Info"
                onTriggered: {
                    //
                }
            }
        ] // end of actions list
    }
    attachedObjects: [
        Sheet {
            id: mysheet
            Page {
                Container {
                    Label {
                        text: "This is my sheet stuff"
                    }
                }
                actions: [
                    ActionItem {
                        title: "Close"
                        ActionBar.placement: ActionBarPlacement.OnBar
                        onTriggered: {
                            mysheet.close();
                        }
                    }
                ]
            }
        }
    ]
    showTabsOnActionBar: true
    Tab {
        title: qsTr("Tab 1")
        Page {
            id: tab1
        }
    }
    Tab {
        title: qsTr("Tab 2")
        Page {
            id: tab2
        }
    }
    Tab {
        title: qsTr("Tab 3")
        Page {
            id: tab3
        }
    }
}

Then for some extra help in making a "Settings" page you may want to read my tutorial on persistent memory and aliases: http://bbcascadescode.tumblr.com/post/35544384390/the-persistence-of-cascades-memory

I had the same source but even with this example I end in a strange situation - when I click on action, the sheet is shown correctly, I can close, everything seems to be ok. But for the second time, it is not - no Sheet is shown and menu is not accessible anymore. Anyone experienced this? For now I'm going to use ordinary page action for that one action

don't spend your time on this

I got the info, that it is fixed in the next OS update for dev alpha

[Zmey]

This is an Application Menu bug, please check this thread for details and workaround:

[ekke]

I don't have implemented this workaround in my apps,

because I know that the ApplicationMenu Bug is already fixed by RIM and will work again with next DevALpha OS Update - I expect this update very soon
