Separate articles that explore this topic in more detail.

Menu Bar Icon
Choose the app’s menu-bar icon and when it appears.
Menu Appearance & Behavior
These preferences let you shape the App Menu around the way you use it: choose where it opens, how much information its sliders show and how additional menu items are revealed.
Customize Menu Options
Customize Menu Options lets you keep frequently used features close at hand while placing occasional ones behind a chevron.
Resolution Slider and Display Mode Menu
These preferences help you shape the list of resolutions you work with and choose how the resolution slider expresses scale.

Start with Menu Bar Icon for the icon itself. Appearance and Behavior covers the menu window, while Menu Contents helps you decide what to show. Resolution Slider and Display Mode Menu explains the choices for browsing display sizes and modes.

These preferences change presentation and access. They do not add capabilities to a display, so a feature still needs a device and control method that support its operation.
