Answer 1

In netbeans 8.0 , the layer file is generated when ever a module contains 'configuration type' annonations in java code, for example a module with top component. The generated layer.xml is located at build directory classes/META-INF/generated-layer.xml. However, the generated-layer.xml is not editable. To hide/show menubar / tool bar, click on the module, click other and add XML layer file. Now under the important files you can see XML layer. Expand it. Now expand . Expand the "Menu Bar". Delete the menu bar which you don't want.
