OK. Answering by myself - to avoid title "duplication" it is possible by
setting "small-invisible" attributed title.

Yes - I can set the title of item with an image, but I don't need
"duplicated" title which is presented by both -

If you use text drawing, your first click will be slow. That's the penalty of
loading each font.
That's why -- at least internally -- the menu code caches the image of each
item, so that the second and subsequent displays of the menu will be quick.
You really have two solutions -- pre-image eac
Well.. that worked. Generally. But those images must have transparent

Drawing item titles into image and caching them for later use works nice.
But I have noticed unacceptable side effect. Normally, when menu is

Hello list,
I am trying to do quite simple thing - add a popup with all fonts, available
on system. Each item of menu, should be displayed in corresponding font. As
an example could be all iWork apps. When you dealing with text, you have a
popup with fonts, and each font name is displayed with "pr
