Alexander:

In Interface Builder, select the panel and look at the Attributes inspector panel. Near the top of the checkboxes, you'll see, "Hide on deactivate". Make sure that is *not* selected.

HOWEVER: The gotcha is that if you have "Utility window (panel only)" checked, you cannot deselect "Hide on deactivate". I *believe* this is "Just The Way It Is". Overriding this would almost certainly require subclassing and would *probably* require an unsupported hack that could break in future versions of OS X.

  Gurus, any suggestions?

Hello!
I have a floating panel (NSPanel) in my application
and I want it to remain visible when the app is deactivated.
How to do it? I've not found anything in the documentation.
