I'm having trouble trying to display a panel as a sheet. I'v read through the Cocoa documentation and a book I have (Cocoa In A Nutshell) on this subject and this is (more or less) the code I have...

One of these things is not like the others...


I'm sorry, that is was a problem with my e-mail, not with my actual code. Here is what it should have been:


#import <Cocoa/Cocoa.h>

@interface SheetController : NSObject
{
    IBOutlet NSPanel *thePanel;
    IBOutlet NSWindow *mainWindow;
}

- (IBAction)openSheet:(id)sender; // Button action from mainWindow
- (IBAction)closeSheet:(id)sender; // Button action from thePanel

@end

@implementation SheetController

- (IBAction)openSheet:(id)sender
{
[NSApp beginSheet:thePanel
modalForWindow:mainWindow
modalDelegate:self // I think this might be the problem. What should it be?
didEndSelector:nil
contextInfo:nil];
}


- (IBAction)closeSheet(id)sender
{
	[NSApp endSheet:thePanel];
}

@end


After a quick review of the conceptual docs for sheets, I don't see anything that indicates that the didEnd selector might be optional - passing nil could be the problem.

I'm fairly certain it is optional. Here's an excerpt from the documentation for NSApplication:


...
The didEndSelector method is optional. If implemented by the modalDelegate, this method is invoked after the modal session has ended and is passed a return code and caller specified in contextInfo.
...



The example in Hillegass' book also sends an -orderOut: to the sheet. This seems to work for me.

I'll try that later today (I'm busy this morning) and post my results. (=
