John you're doing better than me - for iPhone I can't get the simulator to display anything except 4s (Yosemite using LC 6.5, 6.7 and 7.0) - and the simulator keyboard never fires either - but on a device things (so far) appear as they are supposed to... Dave Well, it is a show stopper

Actually, this is quite a non-standard way of accessing menus in OS X and in Windows. BUT… you *CAN* Right click a parent menu and do something with it in a standard Menu. I think I would venture down that path. Someone gave me a few handlers a while back where I was able to modify the
