    <summary>A menu item with a check box.</summary>
    <remarks>
      <para>A CheckMenuItem is a menu item that maintains the state of a boolean value in addition to a <see cref="T:Gtk.MenuItem" />'s usual role in activating application code.</para>
      <para>A check box indicating the state of the boolean value is displayed at the left side of the <see cref="T:Gtk.MenuItem" />. Activating the <see cref="T:Gtk.MenuItem" /> toggles the value.</para>
      <para>Whether the CheckMenuItem is 'on' or not can be determined with the <see cref="P:Gtk.CheckMenuItem.Active" /> property.</para>

        <remarks>
          <para>If the user has selected a range of elements (such as some text or spreadsheet cells) that are affected by a boolean setting, and the current values in that range are inconsistent, you may want to display the check in an "in between" state. This property turns on "in between" display.</para>
          <para>Normally you would turn off the inconsistent state again if the user explicitly selects a setting. This has to be done manually, this property only affects visual appearance, it doesn't affect the semantics of the widget.</para>
