Defining menu and toolbar items

An item is an object that represents a single element of a toolbar or menu (or both). In a menu, it can be visualized as a menu item with a label. It can also simply be a label or a separator between other items. In a toolbar it is represented as a button with either a text label or a bitmap icon. Unless it is just a label or separator, an item will cause some action to occur when it is selected. Items are the basic building blocks from which you will build up all your toolbars.
