One small PopUp problem I haven't seen addressed is having a lot of entries in a PopUp or PopDown (whatever those downward expanding PopUp menus are called). There needs to be something that is able to, perhaps, scroll the choices up and down the way Mac pull-down menus do when the menu is too long to display on the screen. Has anything been done in 3.0 to handle this situation? I wish that merely using a scrollView were a suitable replacement for such problems, but the ability of the PopUp to give an infinite number of choices as well as show the chosen one in a very small space and almost instantly is *very* handy. I would hate to have to revert to a button bringing up a panel that had a scrollView in it. That would seem so cumbersome to me as a user. -- -- Jeff (jeffo@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu) -- No NeXTmail please
