Pulldown style not available for popup menus ? [message #1273074]

Hello,

I am trying to display a popup menu for my view which displays some menu entries and one of those should offer additional options (e.g., like the "Show In" entry in the popup menu of the package explorer view). The menu from my view is contributed by the plugin.xml.
Unfortunately, it seems that the "pulldown" style is only supported for toolbars and not for popup menus (and indeed, it seems that I am not able to makes this menu entry display an "arrow" to show additional choices). I followed this tutorial (except that I use a popup menu instead of a toolbar menu).

I am wondering why this is not possible ? This is rather a common scenario. Or did I miss something ?

Thanks,
Cédric
