Topic: Persistent & Movable Popup Menu

I'd like to make a popup menu that does a couple of slightly unusual things. First, I'd like it to stay on-screen for more than one click. Second, I would like to be able to drag it around using a label I have inserted as the first entry in the menu.

I have found some threads relating to the first item using SetCloseSubMenuOnClick. I've tried it and had some success. My original code (before these unusual requirements surfaced) used CXTPCommandBars::TrackPopupMenu with TPM_RETURNCMD | TPM_NONOTIFY | TPM_RECURSE. To get the multi-click behavior I had to drop TPM_RETURNCMD. Is that correct? I also changed my call to specify the window driving the popup as the parent and was able to catch message notification there. Hmm, this isn't so much a question about "how" as a question about "am I doing this right?"

As to the drag, I am coming up empty. Any suggestions?
