Detailed Description

A menu with title items.

KPopupMenu is a class for menus with standard title items and keyboard accessibility for popups with many options and/or varying options. It acts identically to QPopupMenu, with the addition of insertTitle(), changeTitle(), setKeyboardShortcutsEnabled() and setKeyboardShortcutsExecute() methods.

The titles support a text string, an icon, plus user defined gradients, colors, and background pixmaps.

The keyboard search algorithm is incremental with additional underlining for user feedback.
