Hi Eyal,
I believe the target for a pop-up menu is the view that you pass in that
method, at least initially. If there is an established responder chain from
that view to other responders (up to and including First Responder) then the
menu items should reach their target. But it’s pretty easy t
Then look at some of the other options in that API, e.g.
IOPMAssertionDeclareUserActivity
AFACS, this is the supported way to do the kinds of things you want, of it can
be done at all.

In the “old days”, your app could periodically call UpdateSystemActivity(
UsrActivity ) to prevent the screensaver kicking in. This has been deprecated
since 10.8, but the header for that function says it can be replaced by
IOPMAssertionCreateWithName(). I haven’t looked at that in detail or use
You can make your app trigger a command-line program and pass params using
NSTask. It’s not difficult to use. But in this case you might want to negotiate
this with the user - apps that just go ahead and change MY system preferences
are being user-hostile to say the least.

Set a symbolic breakpoint on NSBeep and see whether it’s your code that’s
calling it.
