                                    </menuitem>
                                </menuitem>
                            </menuitem>
                        </menuitem>
                    </menuitem>
                </menuitem>
            </menuitem>
        </menuitem>
    </root>
</mx:XML>

This control is useful for menus with complex hierarchy and prevents submenus from being clipped by the limitation of the screen.

myMenu = Menu.createMenu(panel, myMenuData, false);
myMenu.labelField="@label"
myMenu.show(0, 0);

You can create submenus of this control in the same way you do with other menu controls.
