Although the docs say it defaults to TRUE, it doesn’t work like that in practice. On some random Mac programming page, I saw code explicitly setting cascading to TRUE. I looked at that and wondered if I can do better. Since the setting looks like a property, I added “shouldCascadeWindows” to the User-Defined Runtime Attributes section of the window controller’s settings in Interface Builder. I set the attribute to Boolean and its value to TRUE, and sure enough it worked! — Daryle Walker Mac, Internet, and Video Game Junkie darylew AT mac DOT com _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
