icon menu dropdown

I'm using smartGWT version 12.0 and i would like to achieve this menu on clicking on the image.
Is it possible?

Your post has been moved to it's own thread. Please do not hijack threads, where you posted was 100% unrelated to your question. Also, wrong forum (you posted in the SmartClient forum but you are asking a SmartGWT question).

Yes, this is pretty straightforward to achieve. You probably want to use a TileLayout full of ImgButtons for the pop-up menu. Create it on click, and use showClickMask() so that you can intercept clicks outside of the menu and dismiss it.

hello, this is how I have tried to do it but just pops the window in the middle of the screen. What could I be doing wrong? is it possible for me to use the menu class instead of a window modal? Thank you.

The display you want looks nothing like a normal menu. While Menu is so flexible that you could actually cram all this functionality into a menu via embedded components, that's a more difficult path.

We're not sure why you're using Window, we said TileLayout. You do need to place the TileLayout - utility methods such as placeNear() and showNextTo() can help you with this.

Thanks for much this will work for me for a time being.
