My regular NSComboBox makes use of a datasource. It works fine EXCEPT, if you click the arrow to show the list, the list does not draw to the screen. What's especially odd is that you can still use your up and down arrow keys to select the item you're looking for. After pressing the return key, the last item that was "invisibly selected" from pressing the arrow keys a few times becomes the current text of the combo box. It's seeing the datasource fine, it's just not drawing the list to the screen when you press the arrow key.

The NSComboBox is located inside a subview on a full-screen window. Not sure if that has anything to do with it. I've checked and double-checked my datasource methods. Everything seems to be in order. Anyone out there ever run into this?

This is the problem. In full screen windows the shielding level of the menu is not high enough. I cannot remember of hand what the solution is, but I think if you search the archives cocoa.mamasam.com the solution has been posted before.
