Can you override -viewDidMoveToWindow in the appropriate view to set the initialFirstResponder on self.window? I agree this is pretty hackish; NSPopover should expose initialFirstResponder directly. (Actually, NSViewController should probably do that, because anywhere you're adding and removing view controllers you're likely going to want to make the appropriate view first responder.) > > 4.

Of course you don't have access to the actual window that displays the popover, but the same was true for NSDrawer. At first I didn't understand why NSPopover wasn't itself a subclass of NSViewController, but it makes sense that you might want to use NSPopover to display pieces of your interface that can appear both within the popover and in other places—like torn off in a floating window. Then the architecture of NSPopover starts to make mote sense. --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
