Too bad TPopupMenu neither has a Visible property or a Hide method. :O(

if (Popup->Visible) {
    Popup->Hide();

How about something like this, using API calls:

if(IsWindowVisible(Popup->Handle))
    ShowWindow(Popup->Handle, SW_HIDE);

Hi Tolga,

You can use the TrackPopupMenu() API function, then the WM_CANCELMODE message to
hide the popup menu.  For example...

void __fastcall TForm1::FormMouseUp(TObject *Sender, TMouseButton Button,
    TShiftState Shift, int X, int Y)
{
    if (Button == mbRight)
    {
        POINT P = ClientToScreen(Point(X, Y));
        PopupMenu1->Tag = true;
        TrackPopupMenu(PopupMenu1->Handle,
                       TPM_LEFTALIGN | TPM_RIGHTBUTTON,
                       P.x, P.y, 0, Handle, NULL);
    }

void __fastcall TForm1::Timer1Timer(TObject *Sender)
{
    if (PopupMenu1->Tag)
    {
        SNDMSG(Handle, WM_CANCELMODE, 0, 0);
        PopupMenu1->Tag = false;
    }

Good luck!
