<p>EZPopUpMenu is wrapper class which creates an (optional) label and a popUpMenu. It includes per item actions as well as a global action which are both evaluated upon selection of an item. Convenience methods for inserting and deleting menu items are also included . If the parent is nil, then EZPopUpMenu will create its own window.See <a href="./../Classes/EZGui.html">EZGui</a> and <a href="./../Classes/EZLists.html">EZLists</a> for all of the options.<h3><a class='anchor' name='Some%20Important%20Issues%20Regarding%20EZPopUpMenu'>Some Important Issues Regarding EZPopUpMenu</a></h3>
<p>The convenience methods for EZPopUpMenu require that the items array is an array of associations of labels and functions, not like in <a href="./../Classes/PopUpMenu.html">PopUpMenu</a>, where items is simply an array of strings. If <code class='code prettyprint lang-sc'>label</code> is <code class='code prettyprint lang-sc'>nil</code>, then no staticText is created.<h2><a class='anchor' name='classmethods'>Class Methods</a></h2>
