I have a regular menu (File menu) for my app. One of the menu items (New
...) is a custom view , which happens to contain a NSPopUpButton (i.e.
simple drop down).

Um, that's ... weird. I suggest you use a regular submenu instead. Many apps have one of those for the New command, when they can create several types of new documents.


Putting a custom control in a menu, that does the same job as an existing mechanism, but differently, it just going to make your app look inconsistent and confusing.
