Hello there,

I'm currently writing a cheat sheet for an application. I'd like users to
be able to open a drop down menu (called layerMenu) as a cheat sheet
action. Is this possible? If so, how? Its been annoying me for so long
I've resorted to joining this forum!

Thanks very much,
Oisin

The User Assistance forum might be able to tell you if they've managed to do it, but I'd imagine not.

In our tests to do the same thing, we had to track down the SWT Menu, do a setVisible(true), and spin the event loop until it finished.
