The same issue with a popup as with the option: you can grey out a pulled
menuItem with a prepended "(", but it will not show such in the normal rest
state. Did you mean that this style of button can have this feature?
Or did you mean that you can roll your own, with greyed text in an opaque field
overlying the combo? Pete wanted the rest state of menuItem 1 to be greyed. The
options themselves can be managed directly once pulled.

Hi Pete,
You can't do that with the option menu, but you can make an empty option menu
button and use the mouseDown button to show a popup menu button at the
bottomleft of the option menu button. You can add a grayed-out menu item to the
popup menu button with a left parenthesis as a prefix.
