I'm working on a plugin that needs to do its configuration in a modal window. As soon as it calls [NSApp runModalForWindow:window], the items in the Edit menu are disabled. Is there some way to selectively enable some of the items? For instance, it'd be nice if I could do a Select All...
Well, does your modal window or its first responder or anything in- between implement selectAll:?
Commands in a menu will be enabled if anything in the responder chain can a) respond to them or b) explicitly enables them in a - validateMenuItem: call. When a modal window is displayed, the responder chain goes as far as the window and stops - it doesn't continue on up to the app as a modeless window's responder chain does.
