      Overrides:
        `createPropertyChangeListener` in class `BasicMenuItemUI`
      Returns:
        an instance of a `PropertyChangeListener` or null

    - #### uninstallDefaults

      Overrides:
        `uninstallDefaults` in class `BasicMenuItemUI`

    - #### uninstallListeners

          protected void uninstallListeners()

      Overrides:
        `uninstallListeners` in class `BasicMenuItemUI`

    - #### createMenuDragMouseListener

          protected MenuDragMouseListener createMenuDragMouseListener(JComponent c)

    - #### getMaximumSize

          public Dimension getMaximumSize(JComponent c)

      Description copied from class: `ComponentUI`
      Returns the specified component's maximum size appropriate for the look and feel. If `null` is returned, the maximum size will be calculated by the component's layout manager instead (this is the preferred approach for any component with a specific layout manager installed). The default implementation of this method invokes `getPreferredSize` and returns that value.
      Overrides:
        `getMaximumSize` in class `BasicMenuItemUI`
      Parameters:
        `c` - the component whose maximum size is being queried; this argument is often ignored, but might be used if the UI object is stateless and shared by multiple components
      Returns:
        a `Dimension` object or `null`
      See Also:
        `JComponent.getMaximumSize()`, `LayoutManager2.maximumLayoutSize(java.awt.Container)`

    - #### setupPostTimer

          protected void setupPostTimer(JMenu menu)
