On a Preference page, I have a Toolitem on which we create a dropdown menu
with 4 items. When I open the preference page, the dropdown menu
automatically popsup without ever clicking on the Toolitem. What could be
causing this? What event would be causing this dropdown menu to popup. I
understand that is a popup menu I thought it would take clicking on the
Toolitem to cause the menu to popup.

Someone is calling Menu.setVisible()? Put a breakpoint there.

That was exactly it. The menu would popup when setVisible was called. I
delayed setVisible until after the toolitem is selected.

Thanks,
