i just started working with the program designing the interface for an adressbook

i want to get rid of the 3D effect in the menu of a pull down button, but set a background color and so on to the menu that appears.

If you want to specify the appearance yourself, rather than accept the way the system draws the menu, you need to do one of two things:

- Set the lookAndFeel to something other than "Appearance Manager". (This may not be a good choice, unless you want to completely control every aspect of the application's appearance and not use the OS appearance for anything.)

- Create a stack menu instead of using a button menu. A stack menu is simply a stack that appears when you click a button, and that behaves like a menu. Since you design the menu directly in a stack, you can have complete control over its appearance, colors, fonts, etc.

There's some information about stack menus in the online docs, at the bottom of the section on "About menus and the menu bar". There is also an example in the "Menus" scripting conference stack, which you can download from <http://support.runrev.com/scriptingconferences/>.
