Not quite. When u say menu_class.property = xxxxx, you are NOT accessing the
property of the class. You are accessing the property of an instance of the
class. Only the names are the same for the class and its instance. PB
creates an instance of every class with the same name. However, in this
case, when you closed one instance of the class, or destroyed it, you no
longer have the object (instance of the class). Therefore, depending on your
application, if you have to close an instance and open another and so forth,
you must create another instance (or rather as many instances as needed) and
then when you close one, the other is still available for use.
