MARC BOOKMEYER  This problem was fixed as of 1.17. Thanks!  
(Version 1.18)

MARC BOOKMEYER  SunnyMenu was released in September, the number of recent updates where in response to user requests. SunnyMenu now supports Path Finder as well as having Dynamic Folders that display contents of a live folder.

Implementing both of these features brought another round of necessary tweaking for perfect operation.

Your only a guinea pig if you want to be on the cutting edge, SunnyMenu is my baby and I enjoy cultivating it to perfection.

MARC BOOKMEYER  SunnyMenu was written as an application launcher to take up virtually no screen space, yet accessible via the mouse.

I prefer the visual approach to launching applications, I couldn't always remember the name of the application I wished to launch. To assist with this I also use categories such as Text, Imaging, Web which I've found makes it easier to find the application your looking for.

So instead of having 50 applications in your Dock, you could have 7 categories with 7 applications in each. So instead of choosing between 50, you only choose between 7, then choose between 7 again. This is the advantage of sub-menus. And for those programs you use all the time? Put them in the root menu for easy access.
