Menu Item

The SpMenuItem bean is used to provide, in essence, a button that is placed in a visual list. It provides a set of default Menu Items types, each of which initiates a particular behavior when its state changes. The functions of these are the same as those of the SpButtons.

When a menu item is clicked, a DSECoordinatedPanel is fired, and the event gets its information from the "type" and "navigationParameters" properties of the menu item. The event name is the bean name (getName() method) with ".actionPerformed" appended.
