Somewhat related question, regarding that Watch Recordings action menu
again. While I'd like to use UIListBtnTree as a list of scrollable
buttons, is there any hints on how to accomplish this as a pop-up?
Everything I've seen to date on the UItypes code has been on full screen
windows.
Also, would you prefer a scrollable pop-up list of choices over say a
full screen INFO screen that appears when pressing INFO on Watch Records
with a scrollable action list on that page?
