 ### Application Menu Behaviour
 
-When you set an application menu using `app.SetMenu()`, it becomes the default menu for all windows in your application. However, there are a few important behaviours to note:
+When you set an application menu using `app.SetMenu()`, it becomes the main menu on macOS.
+Menus are set on a pre-window basis for Windows/Linux.
 
-1. **Global Application Menu**: The menu set via `app.SetMenu()` acts as the default menu for all windows.
-
-2. **Per-Window Menu Override**: Individual windows can override the application menu by setting their own menu through window options:
 ```go
 app.NewWebviewWindowWithOptions(application.WebviewWindowOptions{
