i read the example, it s not what i want.

using awt components worf fine in this way:

class GLTestMenu extends MenuBar
{

    /* liste des objets que je vais utiliser */
    Menu myMenuFile;
    Menu myMenuHelp;
    MenuItem myMenuItemAbout;


    /* constructor */
    GLTestMenu()
    {
	myMenuFile = new JMenu("File");
	this.add(myMenuFile);
	myMenuHelp = new Menu("Help");
	this.add(myMenuHelp);
	myMenuItemAbout = new MenuItem("About");
	myMenuHelp.add(myMenuItemAbout);
    }

    /* methodes */
}

but AWT Menu is not very beautifull compared to Swing.
i m trying another way with setDefaultLightWeightPopupEnabled(boolean) that Jiba
told. if it works and someone is interested, i'll post it.

thanks you two for your help,
