You're right, your code doesn't exhibit the behavior I described --
I think it is because you set the alpha Value in the initializer.
If you set the alpha value after the window is up it does the same
thing - shows a shadow.
This is what I was doing for my little experiment:
1. Start a new project type Cocoa Application
2. Open the MainMenu.nib and delete the window
3. Create a subclass AppController of NSObject
4. Instantiate AppController
5. Make it the delegate of the app (File's Owner)
6. Create the files for AppController
7. Add the following method to AppController.m
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification
{
NSWindow *window = [[NSWindow alloc]
initWithContentRect:NSMakeRect(100,100,600,600)
styleMask:NSTitledWindowMask
backing:NSBackingStoreBuffered
defer:YES];
[window setHasShadow:NO];
[window orderFront:self];
[window setAlphaValue:0.75];
}
Try adding -[NSWindow invalidateShadow] and see if that helps (may
have to follow it with updateWindow).
