- All Implemented Interfaces:
    `Styleable`, `EventTarget`, `Skinnable`

      public class SplitMenuButton
      extends MenuButton

  The SplitMenuButton, like the `MenuButton` is closely associated with the concept of selecting a `MenuItem` from a menu. Unlike `MenuButton`, the SplitMenuButton is broken into two pieces, the "action" area and the "menu open" area.

  If the user clicks in the action area, the SplitMenuButton will act similarly to a `Button`, firing whatever is associated with the `ButtonBase.onAction` property.

  The menu open area of the control will show a menu if clicked. When the user selects an item from the menu, it is executed.

  Note that the SplitMenuButton does not automatically assign whatever was last selected in the menu to be the action should the action region be clicked.

  Example:

       SplitMenuButton m = new SplitMenuButton();
       m.setText("Shutdown");
       m.getItems().addAll(new MenuItem("Logout"), new MenuItem("Sleep"));
       m.setOnAction(e -> System.out.println("Shutdown"));

  MnemonicParsing is enabled by default for SplitMenuButton.

      This method is called by the assistive technology to request the value for an attribute.

      This method is commonly overridden by subclasses to implement attributes that are required for a specific role.
      If a particular attribute is not handled, the superclass implementation must be called.

      Overrides:
        `queryAccessibleAttribute` in class `Control`
      Parameters:
        `attribute` - the requested attribute
        `parameters` - optional list of parameters
      Returns:
        the value for the requested attribute
