I am trying to implement a mini-size, square bevel button that pops up a menu, i.e. a popup button with a square appearance and mini size, but have not found a way to achieve this.

NSPopupButton does not support square button appearance, and doesn't support setControlSize: (though it can of course be an arbitrary size).

I have seen some suggestions for how to achieve this, for example making a NSPopupButton over the top of a square NSButton and setting the NSPopupButton transparent. This works but there are draw issues; sometimes a rounded white area appears around the NSButton (note that I have set the size & location of the popup button to match the button, so the clicks are handled appropriately). I also had a look at NSMenu popUpContextMenu:, but this did not seem appropriate, as it seems solely for right-click/context menus.

How can I do this? I want to avoid having to write the mouse tracking code if at all possible, so the popup behaves exactly like a system one. I'm not clear on how to do this either..

thanks
Rua HM.
