Now, suppose the user somehow move the focus from the detail view (by switching application and coming back, accidently clicking in the master view or whatever). This is a third case, he may have not completed its modifications and should be able to continue editing the record.
All these cases somehow involve user errors. If this really is a problem, why not introduce a separate edit mode? I.e. in browse mode all fields in the detail pane are locked as in *not* editable. To edit anything the user has to enter edit mode (by clicking a button, selecting a menu command etc.). This will unlock the fields in the detail pane and *disable* the master view. That way the user always has to end editing explicitly to change records.
Just an idea. Andreas _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
