All the objects you deal with in ibuild are instances of their
corresponding objects in the library and they are all subclasses of
interactors.  May be you can let me know what you are trying to do so
that I can help you more.

You have to use the Narrow tool.  Basically you create a pulldownmenu
in ibuild first like you create a pushbutton.  Now when you want to
add elements into the pulldownmenu you have to narrow into it.  Now
you are in the scope of the pulldownmenu and you can add just plop
down menuitems AND any other elements to create its body.
