Sometimes it is preferred to display popup menu when DropDownButton is pressed in any area, and not only in the arrow region. This can easily be achieved by using a flag variable in isInArrowArea() method. The best name I could come up for this variable was "alwaysInArrowArea". I attached modified DropDownButton to this post.
