Inside the tmpl directory of each view add an xml file that has the same filename as the layout you want to create the menu for, that looks like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<metadata>
        <layout title="COM_HELLOWORLD_HELLOWORLD_VIEW_DEFAULT_TITLE">
                <message>
                        <![CDATA[COM_HELLOWORLD_HELLOWORLD_VIEW_DEFAULT_DESC]]>
                </message>
        </layout>
</metadata>

For example if the desired layout is named default.php the above would be named default.xml you can find more info here.
