Another way to do this is to implement the NSMenu delegate methods:
- menuWillOpen: - menuDidClose:You would then set the highlighted variable there. I think it'll make the code easier to read. You need to set the menu's delegate for this to work (obviously).

I'm making an NSStatusItem with a custom view. In drawRect:, it draws things based on the value of the "highlighted" instance variable. When mouseDown: is called, it pops up a menu using the status item's popUpStatusItemMenu: method. Using the mouseUp: event does not work, because it is not called after the menu goes away. This is the way I've found that makes it work:- (void)mouseDown:(NSEvent *)theEvent { highlighted = YES; [self setNeedsDisplay:YES]; [statusItem popUpStatusItemMenu:menu]; highlighted = NO; [self setNeedsDisplay:YES]; [super mouseDown:theEvent]; }Is this a good method, or is there something better that involves mouseUp:?
