Use a popup menu button instead, it's all automatic then. The only
reason to use a stack menu is if you want some kind of custom display,
like using images instead of text lists, for instance. Stack menus are
fiddly and rarely needed.
LC separates out the properties it thinks belong to a button of a
certain "type" (even though all buttons can be any style.) So if you
aren't looking at a particular style it thinks should have those
properties, they aren't displayed. You'll see those two if you are
editing a push button.
