The bigger problem, I think, is that the flag is enabled by default when creating windows in Interface Builder. There are plenty of advanced options such as the backing store type that aren't configured improperly by default. Perhaps it was originally a way of breaking nib-induced retain cycles? --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
