There are two ways an app can become active:
1. by explicit user action (clicking in Finder, clicking in Dock, using Command-Tab)
or:
2. without user action (frontmost app is closed or hidden, so the next app becomes active).

I would like to perform some action (like displaying an NSOpenPanel) in case 1 (the user wants my app to be active) but not in case 2 (my app becomes active by accident).

Currently I am using NSApplication delegate method applicationDidBecomeActive: - but this gets called in both cases.

Is there a way to diffentiate between these two cases?

Kind regards,

Gerriet.
