I have a popup button that, when clicked, I change the background

(cancel the popup) and subsequently return the field's background
color to its default. Is there some message I can key off of or
some other way for me to accomplish this behavior?
Do you mean by "cancel" that the user slides off the menu without
selecting an option? If so, try "mouseRelease".
Yes, that's what I mean by "cancel." And no, mouseRelease doesn't
work. Tried it. :-(
Oops, right, you're using a popup. Okay. In that case, the script waits
until the menu is gone before continuing. So you don't need to know
whether they selected anything or not, just deselect your object after
the popup call. Like this:
on mousedown pBtn
if pBtn = 3 then
set the backcolor of me to "blue" -- or any object
popup btn 1 at the mouseloc -- handler waits here till menu is gone
set the backcolor of me to empty
end if
end mousedown
In the popup button script, handle the menupick normally and ignore all
the selection stuff.
