Programatically hide open overflow menu

[Bryan Buchanan]

In some of the commands in an overflow menu I want to have for the action event
               

Display.getInstance().dial(some_number);

or
               

Display.getInstance().openNativeNavigationApp(latitude,longitude);

There is a display issue that when you return to the app from the dialer or navigation app, the overflow menu is (sometimes) open and lowlighted. Sometimes it will close itself, and other times you need to tap on the screen and it will close. So, I wondering if there is something like:

           @Override
            public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent evt) {
                getToolbar().closeOverflowMenu();
                Display.getInstance().dial(CommonContext.INSTANCE.getAddresses()[storeindex].callnumber);
            }

to force close it before calling the external app, or is it better to send off the Display... command in a new thread ?

The close is automatic but sometimes these things happen because of the event chain which is still processing. Just postpone your call to the next EDT cycle by wrapping it in a callSerially call.
