Hi, Alan,

I just compiled Emacs.app 26.1 on my own, and it has exactly the same problem. To be more precise, what seems to happen is that the first click on a menu title does nothing, and the second one drops the menu down. For instance, if you click on the File menu nothing happens, but if you then click on the Buffer menu it drops down normally. Thus, clicking twice on a menu drops it down. Strangely enough, the Emacs menu is an exception, since it works correctly (drops down after one click).

Thanks a lot for your help,

Artemio
