Description _ tboudreau 2003-06-30 22:36:32 UTC 
AFAIK all of the strange NetBeans menu
functionality could
probably be replaced by proper use of the new JDK
1.4 classes
Popup and PopupFactory.  The result should be more
maintainable and less prone to strange
platform-specific 
problems.

Cc'ing Petr Nejedly, AFAIK the last brave soul to
touch
this code.

I'll try to look at it but we still need to somehow maintain the
pre-show hack (because of JInlineMenu)

Possibly related: issue #35827
Comment 3 _ tboudreau 2005-09-20 21:05:23 UTC 
Think this can be closed now - AFAIK all the weird menu hacks are gone.
