How to disable context menus hiding when accidentally clicking non-text?

Question

I have Googled and searched the Apple support board for this everywhere, and cannot find this addressed specifically. What I would like to do is disable how the context menu (for toolbars, right click, whatever)  automatically disappears if you accidentally click one of the dividers or any white space in the menu, instead of one of the actual text options. I keep doing this numerous times throughout the day on accident and it is driving me mad haha.
To get an idea, right click anything in Firefox for example (except for the top menu bar) - and in the context menu that pops up move your cursor so it's not highlighting anything and click  (like the menu's grey divider bar). The menu will stay popped up even if you click, just like they do in Windows. In every other Mac menu, it instantly just closes that menu. Firefox is the only app for Mac I have seen do this, but I'm sure there are others.
Seems like kind of a minor thing (which is probably why I can't find anything lol), but I move between apps and menus all day long and use a touchpad so I'm bound to accidentally click just below an option all the time... Then I have to move cursor back to toolbar, highlight menu option again, and find where any sub-options were - sometimes can be in numerous sub-menus! Any help is greatly appreciated!! Thanks

Ok, here you go.
In your context, apart from your display fields, add another attribute READ_ONLY, type char01. And lets assume you want the field by name field_1 to be editable or not based on some validation. Your code will be like this to initialize the ALV.
DATA:
          l_alv_model               TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_config_table,
          lr_column_settings        TYPE REF TO if_salv_wd_column_settings,
          lr_column                 TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_column,
          lt_col                    TYPE SALV_WD_T_COLUMN_REF,
          ls_col                    TYPE SALV_WD_S_COLUMN_REF,
          lr_input_field            type ref to cl_salv_wd_uie_input_field.
    l_alv_model = l_ref_interfacecontroller->get_model( ).
    l_alv_model->IF_SALV_WD_TABLE_SETTINGS~SET_READ_ONLY( abap_false ).
    lr_column_settings ?= l_alv_model.
    lt_col = lr_column_settings->get_columns( ).
    LOOP AT lt_col INTO ls_col where ID = 'FIELD_1'.
         create object lr_input_field exporting value_fieldname = ls_col-id.
         lr_input_field->set_read_only_fieldname( 'READ_ONLY' ).
         ls_col-r_column->set_cell_editor( lr_input_field ).
    ENDLOOP.
In your event handler, you read your node, do a get_static_attributes_table. Perform all validations. Loop through your internal table and set the field READ_ONLY as 'X' when validation succeeds. Do READ_ONLY = space when validation fails. Then do a bind_elements. Now the rows for which read_only is false, will be editable and vice versa.
Hope I was clear enough. Get back if you have any doubts.
