What Mr. Farmer was saying is this problem is a known bug with no workaround or quick fix. You will have to wait for Apple to fix this in a future system update. There is nothing you can do to your application to make this work properly.

If you make a separate status item plugin, that will work properly because it is loaded and handled by the same process as all the system status items. But a status item from an application won't work the same.

Oh, what he's asking is why you can't single-click to drop down one menu, then switch over to a statusbar item's menu without clicking again.

This behavior is common to all status bar items, and is arguably a bug. You can try reporting it to Apple, but it's unlikely to be fixed for a while yet.

If this is the case, then it should also work with statusbar item that i created. i.e. If click on time machine icon then status menu will be displayed. now i move mouse over my application statusbar item then it should display status menu. Am i right?

because this was not the case with my application statusbar item.Status menu is not display when i move from other items to my statusbar item.
