Update: after a long investigation, I can confirm that the behavior is not aligned with the expectations. In a mobile DAW (so AUv3 format), the plugin cannot create new windows, and that’s the reason why JUCE added the “getParentComponentForMenuOptions” function in LnF:
As explained before, if I set my custom component as the popup menu parent, the popup is actually shown, but it’s difficult to use and definitely ugly. On the other hand, setting the whole audioProcessorEditor as the parent is not working, and the popup does not show up.
This is in contrast with the documentation and what can be read in the blog post above, by setting the AudioProcessorEditor as a parent the popup menu should be visibile, and also not restricted in its parent component bounds.
Am I missing something? Is there something I can do? This is the only issue that is blocking our iPad public release, so it’s really important.
