Placing a slider in a JMenu

Hello everyone,

I am trying to place a slider in a JMenu. I have a JMenuBar set up,
and several menus on the menu bar. When the user clicks on a menu,
then on a particular item in the menu, I want a slider to show up
beside the menu bar, just like any ordinary submenu would. I know how
to do this for radio buttons using JRadioButtonMenuItem, but I don't
know if it is possible to create such a customized submenu.

I was able to make a slider show up as a submenu, but it can't be
dragged. Does anyone know how to implement this? I could make a small
slider panel pop up when the user clicks the menu item, but I'd rather
the one slider appear as a submenu item. This code does not dress up
the slider at all, but it shows how the slider is frozen and can't be
adjusted:

import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class SliderInMenuTester extends JFrame {

    public SliderInMenuTester() {

    super("Slider In Menu Test");
    setSize(500, 200);
       setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

       JMenuBar menuBar = new JMenuBar();

       JMenu menu = new JMenu("Sample Menu");

       JMenu sliderItem = new JMenu("Sample Slider");

       JSlider slider = new JSlider(JSlider.HORIZONTAL, 0, 25, 10);
       sliderItem.add(slider);

       menu.add(sliderItem);

       menuBar.add(menu);

       setJMenuBar(menuBar);

       setVisible(true);

    }

    public static void main(String[] arguments) {
    SliderInMenuTester sliderInMenuTester = new SliderInMenuTester();
   }

}
