Touch UI and pop-up menu options

[nicholso]

from JavaTM ME Developer's Library 3.0, Touch UI support - Displayables and Commands, Section Canvas:

"Touch down and hold opens a pop-up menu containing item specific commands, if available (corresponding to a context specific options menu in a non-touch device) except in full screen mode Canvas"

My initial reaction is to expect the opposite logic for the pop-up menu...

a) in full screen mode there are no soft keys, so having access to pop-up menu option is very useful

b) in normal screen mode there are soft keys, so pop-menu (as already provided on left soft key...) seems redundant

Maybe having api control of this pop-up menu would be a better solution?

... is there a way for my application to pop-up the standard Options menu ?

(I don't want to make a List - I want to show a pop-up menu of the option commands added to the standard command listener - same as implemented above in Normal mode Canvas touch and hold)

Try to use JAD attribute for removing the keypad in your application,

This attribute will specify: Nokia-MIDlet-On-Screen-Keypad

Mind well this only valid for 5'th edition touch devices.
