@Jacque-
Hm, I think I almost understand that. I'm not sure I agree with it being that way, but it isn't like I'd be changing it either.
Better get used to it, it's been that way since 1987.

Well, I s'pose that being so recent a change, I kin get used to it. 'sides, I'm sure you'll be able to calibrate my perspective if needs be (translation: deliver a wop upside the head)

Jacque.
I understand the difference between exiting to top and exiting a handler. I just did not appreciate that sending a menuPick message from a menu button was dependent on mouseDown, an event which seemed to have occurred in the distant past.
I would have thought that displaying the menuItems was triggered by mouseDown, but that menuPick was triggered by mouseUp. That is what I was struggling with. No problem anymore, now that I know mouseDown rules both.
