winico and [tk_popup]

| Hi there!
I've got problem with [menu] while posting it on winico event.
I dock my application in systray and the handle right-click on its tray
icon to popup tray menu.
Everything works, but menu doesn't disappear when I click anywhere else
than menu.
It does disappear when I popup menu from any other event/place (like
'bind <Button-1>' event on some Tk widget).
I've tried both of [tk_popup] and [.m post] (where .m is [menu] of
course).
Why? How to fix it?
It's Win2000 platform.

I have seen this elsewhere I think. It's not exactly a winico
problem. You can demonstrate the effect on XP as well if you create a
menu and post it using after and quickly click on another app. Once
the menu is posted while you have focus on something other than Tk you
can click all over the place without unposting the popup. As soon as
the focus switches back to Tk it will unpost.
In the case of winico, of course the focus is actually on the windows
taskbar so this shows up immediately.
You might try forcing the focus.

Thanks for explanation. It might be useful while trying to fix it...

Tried befor. No effect. Also [raise] doesn't help, same as both of them
([raise] and [focus -force]) called together.
