Vivoactive 6 Simulator problems

The Vivoactive 6 simulator does not seem to respond to a Menu command, and only responds to the buttons in a very tiny area along the edge of the button where it meets the body of the watch in the simulator. 

The Vivoactive 5 simulator operates as expected so it looks to me like this is a set of simulator bugs.

    Ok.  Thanks for the comments/clarifications.

    I have to explain to a modest number of users how to get to the main menu of my app, even when MENU is written on the bezel of the device and knowledge/use of it is required to navigate a lot of the device.  So I sympathize some with that motivation.

    A quick run thru the simulator (not comprehensive) seems that VivoActive 6 is the only device to allow use of the ActiveMenu (so far) even if the device has CIQ 3.4.0 or greater and is mostly touch (like Venu3 or VivoActive5).

    So as developers I wonder if we are safe to assume we will see EITHER legacy onMenu() (non-touch or mostly button devices) and onActionMenu() (touch or mostly touch devices). Therefore, based on presence of View.setActionMenuIndicator I will use ActiveMenu to build my main menu, otherwise I will continue to use Menu or Menu2.
