Now, when I run the app, open the preferences, bring up the sheet, and
then close it and close the preferences window, when some other
application is activated and my application is re-activated by
clicking on its Dock icon, the sheet mysteriously reappears on the
screen. Its backing window, the preferences window, is not open. The
sheet does not accept any keyboard or mouse events; it just sits there
doing nothing but taking up space. If I open the preferences window
again and do something that will bring down the sheet, then the
phantom sheet disappears and doesn't return.
Never mind, I found the solution for the problem, and I present it for
the archives: This happens when the sheet's "hide on deactivate"
setting in IB is turned on. Turn it off and it doesn't do this. I
somehow knew it had to be some window setting I had set incorrectly...
