This cannot be as hard as I'm making it ..... so I'll follow the
excellent advice from the list of not struggling over a simple issue for
more than an hour and ask for help. Though I am about 4 hours late
.... :-(
Easy bit:
I want to have a button, that acts like a pop-up button - i.e. when I
click on it, up pops a list of choices and I can select one - or I can
click outside the list of options and get a "cancel" indication back.
When a choice is made, I do the appropriate action.
This is what I get with a "pop-up menu" selected from the IDE's tool
palette.
Hard part:
Sometimes, there is only one valid choice; in that case, I'd like to go
ahead with the appropriate action immediately - don't present a menu,
just do the action.
I can put in a handler for the mouseDown to the pop-up button - but
can't find a way to avoid it popping up.
I tried putting in another button, and having its mouseDown take the
action - either just doing it, or sending mouseDown to the pop-up button
- but apparently; sending a mouseDown isn't enough to trigger the pop-up.
(I tried a large number of other things, but I'm not going to embarrass
myself by listing them all ....)
Am I just missing some easy way ?
