The drawer and sheets problem

I'm afraid I am suffering from the drawer and sheet "clashing" problem. I've come across several cases in the archives, but decent solutions. However, I am hoping that someone may be able to help me find a decent solution.

So, basically, the problem is this; When one has a window with an attached drawer, bringing up a sheet on the window will not "disable" the drawer - the user can still operate its controls.

Now, as I see it, there are two solutions to this, either one can close the drawer before displaying a sheet, or a method to disable the drawer's contents whilst a sheet is visible is needed.

In my case, I would like to try and pursue the latter of the two - disabling the table contents. So, I guess the real question is:

What does Cocoa do to a window to disable its contents when displaying a sheet? And how can I recreate it in my drawer.

Mike.
