Re: WindowController fails when trying add a panel [Name Warning]

I added a panel to a nib file for a WindowController and now the window fails to open. The code to open the window in the NSDocument file is:

    ctl=[[MovieController alloc] initForMPM:type];
    [self addWindowController:ctl];
    [[ctl window] makeKeyAndOrderFront:nil];
    [ctl release];

and the window fails in the third line with error message

2005-06-28 11:06:30.041 NairnFEAMPM[11528] *** Assertion failure in -[NSApplication _commonBeginModalSessionForWindow:relativeToWindow:modalDelegate:didEn dSelector:contextInfo:], AppKit.subproj/NSApplication.m:3037
2005-06-28 11:06:30.042 NairnFEAMPM[11528] Modal session requires modal window


But this window is a non-modal window? The new panel is connected to the window controller with

    IBOutlet NSPanel *userLimitsPanel;

If I disconnect this link in the nib file the window opens fine (but of course I can not use the panel). Reconnecting the link at it fails again. As far as I can tell, I did this panel by identical methods I have used before. All others work but this one fails?

The problem is solved and was the name of the action event to open the new panel. I named the action event "setUserLimitsPanel" because it opened a panel to set the user limits. This action event, however, was called when the window was created I guess to initialize the userLimitsPanel connection. I have not noticed this in documentation before, but it seems like there are problems if a method looks like a "set" accessor for a nib item even if you have no such accessors in your own code. Or maybe one could use this "feature" to do something?
