Yes it does. If for example I click on toolbar it works fine.

After thinking about this some more, I think I asked the wrong question. 
I think I should have been focusing on how the menus received a mouse 
click, because I realized I control the speed of the click by how I use it.

So is there a way to adjust how a menu reacts to a mouse click?

To reiterate. If I click on a menu as I normally would, it just flashes 
and does not drop down. I must tap and rapidly release the button for it 
to drop down.
