How is this behavior "coherent"? As has already been noted, it's inconsistent between drop-down lists and combo boxes. Also, nothing indicates to the developer why the data-handling behavior of the control has changed simply because he chose an "up" or "down" style of opening. That's like changing the behavior of a control because you picked a beveled instead of a flat decorative box around it. And "modern"? You're kidding, right? The transition to OS X was Apple's chance to modernize many things about its UI, and it chose to squander that opportunity. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
