I'm late to this discussion but here's what I do. It's a modular solution,
and I use it a lot. It's great for contextual menus for right-clicking in a
field (customize the button contents depending on context) and I've often
used it for just what you are doing, to offer a popup list on

I'm trying to get a button to normally be a boring old popup, but allow
other things to be chosen by it.
The natural way would seem to to change it on mousenter if the specified
modifier key is down, or if the second button is clicked.
I get the change to happen trivially, but if I'm doing it
If your script is in a PopUp Menu button then it's probably just getting
confused trying to pop up itself!
Maybe try something like this in a PopUp Menu ensuring that the
menuMouseButton prop is set to 1…
local sModKey
on mouseDown
--ShiftKey check
if the shiftKey is down then
put

I'm confused about what you want to do. But if my guess is right, you
want to change the button's menu content on a mouseDown.

Within limits, it does that
From your example above, you're having the button try to pop itself up.
Thats the only case where you probably don't want to manually popup

The key is to check the conditions, have other popup buttons with your
context menus set up, and if the conditions are met, then popup button
create a popup button
move it to -100,-100
create your standard visible button with the following script:
on mousedown thebutton
popup button x
else
beep
end if
end mousedown
Does this do what you want?
