Okay, one of the design objectives of the app I'm currently working on is
that it must work perfectly in ALL versions of OS X, from Jaguar right down
to 10.0. So please, if you have to ask why, do it off-list, because that
would definitely not be helpful.
So, the app is primarily a statusitem (top of screen, in the menubar, over
to the right. if you don't know this stuff, you should probably skip this
post).
The interface is 100% controllable via mod-clicks to the different parts of
the interface in the statusitem. I allow the user to choose any combination
of shift, control, option, and command modifier keys while clicking the
different "hot spots" (for lack of a better description) of the interface.
In 10.2.x, this works perfectly.
In 10.1.x, this works perfectly as long as I fix NSStatusbarButton using the
code snippet provided by Apple (
http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1081.html ) to ensure that statusitem
clicks don't activate the app. That is fixed, so it does work perfectly in
10.1.x
In 10.0.x, it ALMOST works perfectly. Everything is A-OK until I
option-click any part of the statusitem. This not only activates my app; it
hides the app that WAS active. Yuk.
Anyone seen this?
What can I do to fix?
Again, if you're tempted to ask why I am worried about such an old version
of the OS that not many folks are even using, then feel free to do so
OFF-LIST. I'll be glad to answer off-list.
Thanks.
- Philip
