LiveWire is a three-level animated menu system. The first level consists of menu captions. When the mouse moves over a caption, a column of Items slides and fades into view. Moving the mouse over an item causes a row of Subitems to appear. LiveWire also contains an optional statusbar area where related messages can be displayed as the mouse moves over menu items. The fonts and colors for all text in all states can be selected, along with design options such as spacing, line and fill colors
