Drop Down Menu dissapears behind OpenFin Layout

Manu users will try to implement their own dropdown menus or popup menus on the window or titlebar of the OpenFin window. The resulting behaviour is that when the menu overlaps the layout area of the contents where the views are shown it will be behind the layout no matter what level of z-index you set.

For this reason we offer two methods that you can use instead of creating your own drop down menus.

At the window level we offer window showPopupMenu() where you can create simple popup menus in the style of your operating system.

If you require something more elborate or decorative you can use the showPopupWindow at the window level and its equivalant version showPopupWindow at the view level where you can use standard html to code your menus. All these will be displayed above the layout in the windows.
