Oh. :-)

Stephane's suggestion seems sound in theory, though I can't say I'd be comfortable using it in production myself. There is, however, no reason why you couldn't just recreate the basic controls of the save panel with IB. If you want to turn off just the file system browser, just don't include it.

The save dialogue is, by default, 'collapsed', meaning the file browser portion is invisible anyway. Just don't include that UI (or the disclosure button to the right of the file name).

Because I want the user to have a seamless experience where saving (really
save as) gives them the option to save the document as a "normal" local file
based document or a "remote" document when they choose to save it initially
rather than another menu option to "Save As Remote".


Maybe another menu option to "Save As Remote" is the right thing to do. I'm
sure I'll get some good opinions about it.


Maybe a user will want to initially save it locally to work on and then
remotely to share it. I don't know. I'm still thinking about how the concept
should work.




Why use an NSSavePanel at all, then? If all you need is a name, why not just make a custom panel?

I have an app that works on documents. Now, we have hit upon the
idea that it
would be a really great feature to "Save" or "Save As" these
documents not to
a file system but to a URL or some kind of net service.

I think the user would choose a document type from the popup at the
bottom. If
the user chose to make it a "Remote" document we would only want
the user to
be able to put in a name and make the file system pane disappear or
at least
disable it.

Is there a way to disable views on the NSSavePanel ?
