2) window_feel(1025) - you say kMenuWindow.
This kind of window, appears before all other windows, even before
B_MODAL_ALL_WINDOW_FEEL (AFAIK). Now, all menu windows automatically disappear
when loosing the "Active" state (i suspect on 'WindowActivated(false)').
I think this is handled by BMenu class... (can't look for that now)



Actually, yes, it's like that, but I think there is a little difference between
this and B_MODAL_ALL_WINDOW_FEEL, even if I didnt' test it carefully.
But I remember I noticed some differencies when I switched from
B_MODAL_ALL_WINDOW_FEEL to this private feel.


    Can't you use a B_MODAL_ALL_WINDOW_FEEL, grab the mouse and see where
the user moves/clicks to make menus/submenus appear/disappear?

Nope. You can't use B_MODAL_ALL_WINDOW_FEEL. Tested that with focus-follows-mouse.
Why don't you try with B_FLOATING_ALL_WINDOW_FEEL?


        I am asking you all of these because I want to know what are
the differences from the normal feels, so that I can implement support
for them if needed.


Thanks, Adi.
