[comp.sys.mac.programmer] Popup Menu Question

I'm writing a DA and want to give it its own menu bar rather
than appending an menu to the end of the "real" menu bar. I'm doing
this of course with popup menus. I've basically got it completed
but there is one behavioural difference with my "menu bar" as
compared to the real one. When you click in the real menu bar
it closes one menu opens the next as you drag the mouse across
the different menu names. In my case, when you do this, the next
menu doesn't automatically come up--I have to release the mouse
button and click again on the new menu name to signal that a click
has occurred in the next popup box.  I recalled that
Fullwrite makes its own menu bar (in the find/replace dialog
for example) and checked its behaviour and it acts exactly like
the real menu bar. Can anyone suggest a way I might achieve this
effect using popup menus. Much appreciated.
