Thanks! But it always returns a null List, how do I populate the OMGraphic
with a List of MenuItems? Or is it getting it from the AppObject in some
way?
Regarding the fire* methods:
This may be a silly question but I tried to put this line in my mouseClicked
and nothing happened:
fireRequestMessage("Hello World");

FYI: By the way I do extend the OMGraphicHandlerLayer for all my Layers and
all the other mouse events and such seem to work fine...
