RE: [Dynapi-Widgetdev] Pulldown menu widget (1st attempt failed)

[Ken O. <ko...@an...>]

I've changed my approach.  Instead of trying to extend CoreButton and
CoreToolBar, i copied the code and changed it.  This seem to be going
better.

Don't waste your time looking at this.

Thanks anyways.

Ken
