You can use the Menu component to create a menu of selectable choices; this menu is like the File or Edit menu of most software applications. You can also use the Menu component to create context-sensitive menus that appear when a user clicks a hot spot or a presses a modifier key. Use the Menu component with the MenuBar component to create a horizontal menu bar with menus that extend under each menu bar item.
Like standard desktop menus, the Menu component supports menu items whose functions fall into the following general categories:
Command activators These items trigger events; you write code to handle those events.
Submenu anchors These items are anchors that open submenus.
Radio buttons These items operate in groups; you can select only one item at a time.
Check box items These items represent a Boolean (true or false) value.
Separators These items provide a simple horizontal line that divides the items in a menu into different visual groups.
