Main Activity:
Sub Activity_Create(FirstTime As Boolean)
    Dim pm As B4XPagesManager

    'Menu Creation
    Dim mnPages, mnText, mnIcons As List
    mnPages.Initialize
    mnPages.AddAll(Array As String("MainPage", "pgPage1", "pgPage2"))
    mnText.Initialize
    mnText.AddAll(Array As String("Main Page", "Page1", "Page2"))
    mnIcons.Initialize
    'The menu supports only materialdesignicons-webfont.ttf
    'use https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/b4x-materialicons-web-font-chooser.103985/#content
    'to get appropriate icon codes
    mnIcons.AddAll(Array As Long(0xf104, 0xf14f, 0xf0ee))

    btmMenu.Initialize(Activity, mnPages)
