Disclosure button displaying a menu

Question

Please give me an advice how to implement this kind of disclosure button as on my screenshot - a disclosure "arrow down" button displaying a menu on click:

I've tried two approaches, using NSPopupButton and NSButton with disclosure style and manual menu displaying:

• NSPopupButton keeps displaying default value text and can't be resized in Interface Builder to a narrow size.

  

• NSButton displays a menu, but it's obviously misplaced to the point where I click the button, not at the bottom edge. I'm using the following code:

  - (IBAction)handleShowMenu:(id)sender
  {
      [NSMenu popUpContextMenu:profileMenu
                     withEvent:[NSApp currentEvent]
                       forView:sender];
  }
  

  

So what's the right way to display such a menu?

Answer 1

I've managed with it! The correct setup is to use NSPopupButton with "No Arrow" and "Disclosure" bezel style, "Momentary Push In" type.
