Q: I'm trying to shrink the vertical size of the sub-menu entries in my menu:
I think I've specified all the parameters correctly in data.js, but itТs hard to tell what affects the height of the submenu entries. Even reducing the type from 10pt to 8pt didnТt shrink them at all.
A: See, you set the following parameter:
var itemPadding = 7;
That is why you have such a big padding around the items.
If you don't want to change the appearance of the main items youshould create Individual Style for the subitems. For example:
var menuStyles = [
["itemPadding=2px"],
];
And assign this style for the first item in submenu.
