This sounds like a feature that exists in Xcode, which implies you're trying to do this while the menu is visible. In that case, the menu is running the runloop in event-tracking mode and pulling events for its own purpose. The window containing the popup button is (conceptually, if not in actuality) no longer key. I believe someone has implemented a workalike to the Xcode functionality. --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
