"Pull-down controls are intended to be filled with commands. They do
not behave like popup controls. If you want the popup behavior, you
must have the popup appearance."
You mean APPLE'S pop-up behavior. The up/down decision should have
nothing to do with any other operational mode of the control. Forcing
developers to accept a control that might extend a list upward is just
bad design. It's also inconsistent with Apple's own combo-box
behavior, which drops down and doesn't insist that contents be
"commands". I have a dialog with plenty of non-essential space BELOW
the multiple-choice control. Therefore I want the control to drop
DOWN, as developers have been able to dictate in other platforms' UIs
for decades.
