Thanks for posting the working suggestion you received. I took that script
and modified it for some people and they love it. They attach it to a
Function key or QuicKey and can run it at a button push,

This one makes a popup of every open window

tell application "Finder"
activate
set theWindows to every window
repeat with i in theWindows
set popup of i to true
end repeat
set pulled open of i to false
end tell

And this one makes popups of selections

tell application "Finder"
activate
set theFolders to selection
repeat with i in theFolders
if i is folder then
open container window of i
set theWindow to container window of i
set popup of theWindow to true
end if
end repeat
try
set pulled open of theWindow to false
end try
end tell

Yea, it's sort of sloppy. But for a couple of minutes of work it gets the
job done. Thanks to everyone for sharing.
