Custom Ribbon XML - Create a Dropdown with Additional SubMenu

[ashleyuk1984]

Hi,
I'm having a little dabble with creating a Custom Ribbon as an "AddIn", and to save a lot of space I'm trying to create dropdown menus.

I've successfully created a dropdown menu that looks like this:



However, I was wondering if this kind of dropdown menu was possible?
Note the arrow, and additional submenu



Of course, I've tried to Google this... and Google has helped me a lot up to this point. I'm just trying to take it that extra step further.
Thanks

Yes you can. this example has 3 levels of menus

<customUI  xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui" >
    <ribbon >
        <tabs >
            <tab 
                id="Tab1"
                label="Tab1">
                <group 
                    id="Group1"
                    label="Group1">
                    <menu 
                        id="Menu1"
                        imageMso="FormulaMoreFunctionsMenu"
                        label="Menu1"
                        size="large">
                        <menu 
                            id="Menu2"
                            label="Menu2">
                            <button 
                                id="Button1"
