The NSPopUpButton sends out a notification when the user clicks on it so that the application can update the menu at that point. Is there a way to simply do this as a delegate, or do I have to register to receive the notification? I've noticed that most NSControl objects work fine as a delegate instead of requiring the notification. I'm doing something simple. I don't need to get that complex.

That's odd. Usually if there is a notification available like this then there is a delegate method that you can override too (as delegates are registereed to receive all notifications by default). The header files don't have one, though.

Looks like you'll have to bite the bullet & register for notifications (it's only 1 line anyway, even if it is more work than setDelegate).
