Yes the text field needs to be made key.
I wouldn't put that in awakeFromNib because that only executes when
the sheet is initially loaded from nib. So if you reuse the sheet
(instead of reloading from nib), the awakeFromNib will not be called.
Usually I only use awakeFromNib to do extra initialization that
really should be done in IB but I can't.
So you should have a controller object for the sheet. That controller
should have some kind of display method. For example NSOpenPanel has -
beginSheet... So that display method is were you should put the set-
key field code.

Yes.. So does that mean I have to make the field key on awake nib
in my sheets controller? (my sheets are all in their own nibs due
to keeping the functionality modular).

Do you click and then type?
Click makes the field key. The caret blinks on the key text field.

I have not touched the insertion point. I don’t know if it has
something to do with how iphoto’s export dialog is done? But the
minute I type I get my caret. And I can click out and back in and
se my cursor. However if the field is empty then not caret.
How do I use Quartz Debug to determine if it’s being redisplayed?

What method did you use to display the sheet?

So this goes back to my original question about the caret and
the text
field.. If I change my class to a NSecureTextField I get a
caret but if its
a NSTextField I get no caret when hosted in my panel. Again
this is an
iPhoto export plugin.
