Cloning the Header Menu Widget

Has anyone successfully cloned the header menu widget in the new service portal? I cloned it, but when I put it in a page, things seem to get really glitchy.

EDIT: Figured this out. Turns out cloning the header menu widget is probably a bad idea. If you want to customize the navbar etc, you are probably better off cloning the stock header under Headers & Footers and then including it in a custom theme.

Not sure what your specific goal is, but on the off chance you are also trying to make header items appear when the record count goes to zero (like I was), its achievable without cloning the menu:

Ok, In my case its a different case, I would like to highlight the menu item when users clicks on it, so the users know in which menu they are.
