Toolbar button rectangles

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Do you know how to get the rectangle of the toolbar button that is
right clicked on so that a menu can be displayed and aligned with the
bottom left corner of the button?

Something like:

get the right click point

find the rect of the button that was right clicked on

appendmenu items to a menu

track the menu and draw it  at bottom left of button

Thanks.
