So I've sacrificed a heart and my knees for the effect? Removing the throb from the button does do it, although now I have the yet more egregious disregard for guidelines of no default button to close the sheet.

The borderless sheet really does look nice, subtle as it is, and I'd be disappointed not to find a solution for this--however much a hack. Maybe a category on this "NSNextStepFrame" with a dummy contentAlpha method? But then I feel like I really would be doing something wrong.

Hi all, I'm running an NSWindow subclass that uses the
NSBorderlessWindowMask style as a sheet. The subclassed window is the
sheet. The sheet runs, but the following error is logged to the console:


 *** -[NSNextStepFrame contentAlpha]: selector not recognized [self
= 0x446a890]
 Exception *** -[NSNextStepFrame contentAlpha]: selector not
recognized [self = 0x446a890] raised during heart beat. Ignoring....

If I put the window on the screen unattached to another, the
exception is not raised.

Is there a way around this error?

I haven't tried this myself, and I don't know what effect the borderless
window mask has on the look of the sheet (or whether the human interface
police will soon be adding your kneecaps to their collection). But the
exception says it's raised during the heart beat, so I would try removing
the default ("throbbing") button and see if the problem goes away (because
now there is no heart beat). m.
