inscribe upon an electronic papyrus:

Pulldown menus do not have a current item; the notion is irrelevant. 

Does that help? 

 Pulldown menus are for running commands, while popup menus are for
displaying and selecting a setting. Method vs. property, blah blah
blah. 

-boo 

  Yes, it helps greatly. I regret that I failed to find this obvious
distinction in the documentation. Likely it's there, and I simply
overlooked it.

To really understand this stuff, the documentation to read is the HI
Guidelines.
Really, that whole document should be a prerequisite to AS Studio.
And then there are the third-party books, such as Tog on Interface. :-)
