Answering my own question. I added an override for -(NSMenu*)menuForEvent:(NSEvent*)theEvent;, just stubbing it out, doing nothing, returning nil. It works out fine and seems to solve my problem. > As well, are there any other subtle user-interaction approaches that I may > need to add to my stub-out list? Still, I'd be curious if there might be any further subtle behaviors I need to override/stub-out for QTMovieView so that it's purely "watch only". Thanx. -- John C.
