How to create ui menu with app designer?

I have Matlab 2017a, and would like to create a menu inside a uifigure. I followed the documentation on the mathworks website, but continue to get the following error:

Error using uimenu Functionality not supported with figures created with the uifigure function. For more information, see Graphics Support in App Designer.

Despite the error, the documentation states that I am supposed to be able to use uimenu within a uifigure

Understand that the website documentation naturally offers the most current release. There is a way to view past releases' documentation on the MathWorks website.

Release Notes clearly indicate this is an R2017b feature. If your SMS is current, you can upgrade at will.

The uimenu implementation in R2017b is fantastic. Very simple to add and manipulate from Design View in AppDesigner.
