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 "Shift Key and" into sModKey
else
put "Just" into sModKey
end if
end mouseDown
on mouseUp pBtn
if pBtn = 3 then answer sModKey && the short name of me
end mouseUp
on menuPick pItemName
answer sModKey && pItemName
end menuPick
