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.
