Probably because it contravenes HIG 'rules' ;) However, if you really want to go down this path then you could try the following... # create an option menu with its text sent to empty (let's call this btn "option") # create a popup menu with its text set to your cascading menus (let's call this btn "popup") # set the script of btn "option" to the following... on mouseDown popup btn "popup" at the bottomLeft of me end mouseDown # set the script of btn "popup" to the following... on menuPick pItem set the itemDel to "|" set the label of btn "option" to last item of pItem -- add routines related to menu selection here end menuPick You might want to fiddle with the location at which the popup btn appears a bit (try adding a pixel or two to the y co-ordinate).
