Non-Active Window Interaction

Hello,

I am needing to use some utility windows in my program, and I have some buttons and a custom NSView in them, all of which receive mouse input. Unfortunately, I've noticed that, at least for the NSView subclass and for the NSColumnView, I have to click once (which makes that window the active one) before they actually accept any mouse input (dragging, etc...). So, if I want to drag an item, I have to click once in the view, tthen click again and hold to perform the drag action.

Is there some way to remove this requirement from the windows? They are currently set up with the following flags in Interface Builder (though changing the flags does little to affect the multi-click requirement):

Deferred
One-Shot
Utility Window
Has Shadow

Thanks so much.
