Overview

The Cvo_Application object is usually the top level window in an application. Because of this, typically the parent or display argument is not given. This object provides a menu bar, the company logo, and an area in which to build the application. The children of a Cvo_Application object are laid out in a vertical fashion with the menu bar at the top. A user defined menu bar, given by the menu_bar argument, may be used instead of the system default. The system default menu bar contains a single menu, "File", which has a single entry, "Exit..."
