Is there a way to find out if the mouse is currently over a PopupMenu?

I can’t see anything in the docs. Pretty simple task, how can I check if the mouse is currently over a given popupMenu?

Maybe you can use MouseInputSource::getComponentUnderMouse() combined with a dynamic_cast<PopupMenu>?

I like your thinking, but PopupMenu doesn’t inherit from Component from what I can see.

Oh right… Looks like its shown with a MenuWindow-component, but this class is hidden away in the juce_PopupMenu.cpp, so I guess that’s not really an option

Yeah, this seems like a weirdly limiting factor in the API. @reuk would it be trivial to get some mouse state functionality built into this class? Even something like getScreenBounds() would suffice and we can hit test from there.
