Incidentally, in the context of Lion and automatic termination/resume, it's no longer just the ickiness that's a problem. The deeper problem is that application existence has been divorced from process existence. When your application's *process* starts up, the *application* may already be active (and vice versa). If you display a splash screen, you risk having it pop up at random times, from the user's point of view. You seem to be trying to display a license agreement (when the application has been installed/updated?). I'd suggest you pitch this as a modal interaction rather than a splash screen. So, you might want to enter this mode just before opening a document, rather than just after starting the process. Or make the agreement window application-modal, without preventing (at least) resumed windows from being restored. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
