Is there a way to have a single list of Menu items fed into multiple umenu objects?

The goal is to not have to update the same list on every umenu object (items attribute) whenever I want to edit or add new items to the list.

Or can the menu item list only be modified directly in the inspector of each object?

Is thre no longer an example of how to set umenu from a message in the max help?

Thank you, Ernest, the max help examples for umenu are all great, but don't include my scenario. 

I should describe it better. I'm aiming to be able to edit a single list of expressions (it's quite long) that updates the list of multiple umenu objects. This is for a troubleshooting & experimenting phase, not needed in the final patch, so might be more trouble than it's worth. :)

Don't know if I understand correctly, but you could use send and receive

Well I update a list in a chooser object, which is similar, for displaying the presets stored in pattrstorage. I tried doing it with Max objects and it had wires all over the place. As it's not performance-critical functionality Im redoing it all in JavaScript, and it's much better. But it's going to be a couple of weeks before I have an example to share, so far I just got the display updating, and Im adding recall/store/revert buttons etc. still.

Same list fed into multiple umenu objects?
