While this may be the case in general, when the menubar script is:
on mouseDown
put the long name of the focusedObject & return & return & the focusedObject into
field "results"
end mouseDown
The first part of the put (the long name of the focusedObject) results in a
card on the main stack being written to the “results” field and the second part
of the put (the focusedObject) results in the field on the sub stack being
written to the “results” field.
It still holds. Menus are buttons, buttons are not focusable on Mac, so
LC reports the card as focused.
I haven't tracked the problem with two different values in your scripts,
but my first thought was like Mark's: on mouseDown the focus changes to
the menu button. Since buttons can't have focus on Mac, you get the card
reported instead.
I almost never use focusedObject. The handler worked fine when you
checked the selectedfield, which is how I have always done it too. The
discrepancy you're seeing is interesting (and maybe worth a bug report,)
but the alternative method is easy enough.
