Oops, yes, silly of me to have said that about earlier Mac OS. I think what I was trying to say was that there may have been a time when the Save dialog didn't show files, or didn't show all files, (though I don't remember for sure), which might have had something to do with the Mac OS X delegate eventually being designed to control what files were shown. Or maybe not. However, the click-to-prefill thing did precede Cocoa, as a 3rd-party hack. The other thing I forgot to say earlier is that the new 'panel:shouldEnableURL:' method is explicitly documented to be *ignored* for Save panels, which makes more sense in terms of the OP's original question than the older delegate method. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
