Not working in what sense? I'm afraid I haven't managed to find a
mention of what particular problem you have. As I understand it, the
Gtk::WINDOW_POPUP attribute only controls decoration hints.

When do you want it to pop up? The actual mechanics of "popping up" a
window are trivial - call the show() method, and maybe do some
positioning. All you need is to define some suitable event to trigger
that, which is going to be a characteristic of your GUI design so
nobody here can answer it for you.
