Why does a single-item "close" menu appear when this button is clicked with the trackwheel but no menu appears when it is "clicked" by pressing ENTER when it has focus? If I add an edit field, the default main menu appears when the trackwheel is clicked in the edit field (which is what I want), but when the button defined below is clicked with the trackwheel that single-item "close" menu appears (which I DON'T want). What am I doing wrong with this button?

Try:

testButton = new ButtonField("Click Me", ButtonField.CONSUME_CLICK);
