Blank space when there no hint.

If there is no hint there is a blank space above the other options. If I put a hint the hint fills this space,

Hey @x00 , this is currently by design and i'm not sure will change this. This is becauase this way the first item of the popup comes just below where input control is.

ok I was going to use this an options menu called from the action bar so it overlays. Works but bit hacky, guess, I need to delve into the code and make my own.

can you explain this?

setting hint to null before opening works for me. :)

Hey @x00 , ok seems I was wrong... Seems I have added ability to hide the "header", and yes you are correct that the hint should be null. Seems currently by default it is empty string. I will see to change the implementation to also check for empty string. Thanks for digging through the code.
