How do you set the background color of a menubutton in focus?

I tried I read the manual many times and tried many things, but
still couldn't get it to work. This is what I've tried:

menubutton $base.fra.men \
-menu .mainWin.fra.men.m -padx 7 -pady 5 -font
$::menu_font \
-image $::some_image -relief groove -highlightcolor
Green

Oh please, regardless of the simplicity, do share it.

Personally, I hate it when I google for a random question, dig out a
single forum mentioning it, and see only people saying "never mind,
problem solved" without giving the solution.

I used the wrong option, it should be activebackground. The
following works:

$base.fra.men configure -activebackground Green
