You need to activate mouseMove events. One way is by adding tracking rects:

- (void)updateTrackingAreas {
    [super updateTrackingAreas];
    [self addTrackingArea:[[NSTrackingArea alloc] initWithRect:self.frame options:NSTrackingActiveAlways | NSTrackingInVisibleRect | NSTrackingMouseEnteredAndExited | NSTrackingMouseMoved owner:self userInfo:nil]];
}

- (void)mouseEntered:(NSEvent *)theEvent {
    [self updateMenu];
}

- (void)mouseExited:(NSEvent *)theEvent {
    [self updateMenu];
}

- (void)mouseMoved:(NSEvent *)theEvent {
    [self updateMenu];
}

But the UI doesn’t look like a mac app. If it really needs to look like this, maybe you are better off building it in HTML and embed an WebKitView??
