Hi, thank you for answering.

I do the following:

- (void) menuWillOpen:(NSMenu *)menu
{
> [statusItem popUpStatusItemMenu: menu]; 
> [NSApp activateIgnoringOtherApps:YES];

}

It brings the process to the front, but on first click the menu doesn't stay 
open, so i have to click it again to show up.

What is the best practice to implement it anyway?

Thanks,

Nava
