What you need is a screen capture utility (I use Capture 2.0) and a little init called MenuSaver. MenuSaver allows you to select the pull-down menu you want to capture and then you use the screen capture keyboard sequence you would normally use and you have your pull down menu.

Capture 2.0 is a commercial screen capture utility, I also understand that Exposure is very good. You can get a shareware screen capture utility from anonymous FTP from sumex (36.44.0.6) called screensnap 2.2 in the /info-mac/utils directory. I haven't tried the combination of screensnap and menusaver so I'm not certain it will work. Menusaver is shareware/PD I can't remember which. If people want it I will track down the exact source.

Hope that helps.
