1/ From a design point of view, would it be ok to have a sheet rolling
out from a previous sheet ? If not, what is the recommended way ?
It's not OK. Read the guidelines for sheets here:
/Developer/Documentation/Essentials/AquaHIGuidelines/
AquaHIGuidelines.pdf
A couple of quick suggestions on how to solve your problem:
1) Use a modal panel as the second panel, and not a sheet.
+ Pro: In accordance with guidelines
- Con: Is app modal, but should be doc modal.
2) Close the first sheet before opening the second sheet.
+ Pro: In accordance with guidelines
- Con: Opening and closing sheets takes time.
- Con: Closing first sheet before all data is entered is not good UI.
2/ From an implementation point of view, is it possible without any
glitch ?
No, because the frameworks are trying to discourage you from doing this
- and might actually prevent you in any future system release even if
you manage to succeed right now.
