Avoiding blue border of popup menu (trying to mimic a command menu)

[eoneon123]

I'm sure this is basic, but I'm trying to create a command button inside a portal that when clicked, triggers a popup menu list of command selections. I want the portal row to be editable and I also want to hide the empty portal row below. I have been able to create this set up by using a global field with a conditional value list that executes commands based on an OnObjectMod script trigger. On top of the global field I've placed a non-enterable calc field that displays text identifying the button; something akin to the grayed out "Goolgle" text inside a search field in a browser. 

 

What is bugging me is that if I press the global popup without actually selecting a command and then click once outside the portal, the global field displays an unsightly blue border until I click outside the portal a second time. 

 

My initial thought was to shrink down the global popup menu/value list field (since it doesn't appear to affect the size of the actual popup selections, and then make the calc field a button-trigger that unfurls the list, but this doesn't seem to work either. Any suggestions?

It sounds like you have a color for "In Focus" selected.

In Hover, Focus, and Pressed, my Fill and Line are set to no color. There is still a thin, blue halo around my field. I do have the text set to a color when in "Pressed" state to match the background so it's invisible when I'm under the circumstances described above (single click outside portal), but I get the same blue halo even when that's set to no color. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here. Is there a way to replicate the double click outside the portal by a script trigger that kicks in upon a single click outside the portal?
