Heh, I was just making a dig at the replacement of folder menus with fans. I wasn't thinking about right-clicking an application in the dock. IOW, never mind ;)

Yeah, I don't exactly like the stacks 'feature' at all. Especially since I was one of those people that had a folder item in the Dock with aliases to all my apps organized neatly into subdirectories. I used the folder menu to open all my apps, now I've had to start using XMenu to be able to function properly. It's not that bad once I got used to the new location of my menu, but Apple had told users that they could do just this with a folder in the Dock in one of their help files.

In fact, even the Dock can no longer display that appearance.

Why do you say that? Control-click any application in the Dock and you get a popup menu with a little triangle pointing back towards the application you clicked on.

No, I don't think there's a way to make a pop up button's menu look
like a status item's menu.

Can't hurt to ask then:
1) Is there a way to make a popup menu (popped by [NSMenu popUpContextMenu:...] or any other method) look like a Dock menu?
2) and if yes, I need to position the menu's triangle point very precisely, too...

No, there is no way to get a Dock-menu appearance.
