The kind of menu you're asking about is generally known as a "hyperbolic tree". An example can be seen at:

I'd be surprised if there were a NSMenu based example of this since NSMenu isn't really customizable in the ways needed to implement a hyperbolic tree.

I remember some (possibly) cocoa sample code that may have been from Apple, that demonstrated how to create a custom NSMenu with a huge number of items but using the 'fish-eye' visual trick of scaling those near the mouse (with a fall off to a tiny font size). Does anyone else recall this sample code - I'm having trouble finding reference to it (on google and on these lists).
