Is there a Extension Library Control for dropdown menus?

I see a "menu dropdown" type control in one of the examples of the OneUI application Framework v2.1 that has a dropdown menu. see here (http://infolib.lotus.com/resources/oneui/2.1/docPublic/examples.htm?content=interactive.htm&theme=green). If you hover over the links at the top of the interactive demo like "people" and "communities" a dropdown menu appears. I would love to use the control if it exists rather than creating one.

Thanks in advance for any info.

Per Henrik Lausten answered my question on stackoverflow:

if you use the Application Layout control and add a container node with children to the Utility Links or Application Links section, you will get a drop down. Here's an example:

<xe:basicContainerNode label="Container 1">

<xe:this.children>

<xe:basicLeafNode label="Link 1"></xe:basicLeafNode>

<xe:basicLeafNode label="Link 2"></xe:basicLeafNode>

</xe:this.children>

</xe:basicContainerNode>

Thanks Per.
