/**
 * The SplitMenuButton, like the {@link MenuButton} is closely associated with
 * the concept of selecting a {@link MenuItem} from a menu. Unlike {@link MenuButton},
 * the SplitMenuButton is broken into two pieces, the "action" area and the
 * "menu open" area.
 * 
 * If the user clicks in the action area, the SplitMenuButton will act similarly
 * to a {@link javafx.scene.control.Button Button}, firing whatever is
 * associated with the {@link #onAction} property.
 * 

 * The menu open area of the control will show a menu if clicked. When the user
 * selects an item from the menu, it is executed.
 * 

 * Note that the SplitMenuButton does not automatically assign whatever was last
 * selected in the menu to be the action should the action region be clicked.
 *
 * 
Example:
 *  * SplitMenuButton m = new SplitMenuButton();
 * m.setText("Shutdown");
 * m.getItems().addAll(new MenuItem("Logout"), new MenuItem("Sleep"));
 * m.setOnAction(new EventHandler() {
 *     @Override public void handle(ActionEvent e) {
 *         System.out.println("Shutdown");
 *     }
 * });
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 

 * MnemonicParsing is enabled by default for SplitMenuButton.
 * 
 *
 * @see MenuItem
 * @see Menu
 * @since JavaFX 2.0
