The main palette in MPI replaces a set of development menus.
This has the advantage of allowing the menus of the project you are developing to work correctly, but also allows you to access MPIs menus via the palette or command keys.

There is no interference with you projects own menus, your own menus have precedence.

The menus work not as you might expect as popup menus, but more like MenuBar menus, rolling out of one menu into another opens the next menu.
