Thanks! After looking through this manual i successfully created simple window with cascaded menu which. I will deeply research this book.
One more question: how to add separator to the menu group? either MenuGroupModel nor MenuItemModel has special selector but autocompletion shows me "addSeparator", if i use it - i get an error.
