I'm trying to display a list of system voices, but I'd like to group them by region.

This is an example of select in html.

Ideally I'd like to create a dropdown that is similar to accessibility language selection.

Is there any way to replicate this in Interface Builder / swift?
Any pointers would be appreciated.

Update:

The reason for this, is because I am displaying a list of speech voices to the user. At the moment, it mixes all the regions together, which is very confusing.

There is an update I'm working on, where I can display "English (United Kingdom)", but I'd like to group them up before releasing it.

The following code groups menu, but not like the way you mentioned.

let items = [["First","Second"],["First","Second"],["First","Second"]]



lazy var addNewViewButton : NSPopUpButton = {

    let popupButton = NSPopUpButton()



    let firstMenuItem = NSMenuItem(title: "First Group", action: nil, keyEquivalent: "")

    let secondMenuItem = NSMenuItem(title: "Second Group", action: nil, keyEquivalent: "")

    let thirdMenuItem = NSMenuItem(title: "Third Group", action: nil, keyEquivalent: "")



    let superMenu = NSMenu()

    superMenu.addItem(firstMenuItem)

    superMenu.addItem(secondMenuItem)

    superMenu.addItem(thirdMenuItem)



    for (index,item) in items.enumerated()

    {

        let menu = NSMenu()

        for title in item

        {

            let menuItem = NSMenuItem(title: title, action: nil, keyEquivalent: "")

            menuItem.target = self

            menu.addItem(menuItem)

        }

        menu.addItem(NSMenuItem.separator())

        superMenu.setSubmenu(menu, for: superMenu.items[index])

    }

    popupButton.menu = superMenu



    popupButton.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false



    return popupButton

}()

Add the popupbutton in your code and you will get results like this

Each one will be having its own items inside.

If you don't have the group heading, you can use the following code

let items = [["First","Second"],["First","Second"],["First","Second"]]



lazy var addNewViewButton : NSPopUpButton = {

    let popupButton = NSPopUpButton()



    let menu = NSMenu()

    for item in items

    {

        for title in item

        {

            let menuItem = NSMenuItem(title: title, action: nil, keyEquivalent: "")

            menuItem.target = self

            menu.addItem(menuItem)

        }

        menu.addItem(NSMenuItem.separator())

    }

    popupButton.menu = menu



    popupButton.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = false



    return popupButton

}()

Result :
