Hi,
I click on a button and build my own NSMenu then I popup the menu with
    [NSMenu popUpContextMenu:
It works well. Now I would pre-select a MenuItem so when I click on the button the menu pops-up putting the MenuItem under the mouse. How can I do that?

You should not use a contextual menu to simulate a popup menu. If you want to programmatically trigger a popup menu, create an NSPopUpButtonCell, assign it the menu and initial item index you want, and then call -[NSPopUpButtonCell performClickWithFrame:inView:]

The NSPopUpButtonCell can be transient - it's fine to create it right when you receive the click and destroy it afterwards.
