A Menu
object is a pull-down menu component
that is deployed from a menu bar.
A menu can optionally be a tear-off menu. A tear-off menu can be opened and dragged away from its parent menu bar or menu. It remains on the screen after the mouse button has been released. The mechanism for tearing off a menu is platform dependent, since the look and feel of the tear-off menu is determined by its peer. On platforms that do not support tear-off menus, the tear-off property is ignored.
Each item in a menu must belong to the MenuItem
class. It can be an instance of MenuItem
, a submenu
(an instance of Menu
), or a check box (an instance of
CheckboxMenuItem
).
