I think you need to show us the code you use to run the window. > 4) The documentation says nothing about the problems above, but it states > the processing stops any other processing in other windows, including > timers, that's not a good idea. It puts the runloop into a different mode, and blocks user events aimed at other windows, which sounds like what you want. Whether timers run depends on what runloop modes they were registered with; but there are plenty of other cases where modal windows are run, so the host app has probably had to deal with those before. —Jens_______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
