4. Dragged a Panel from Objects/Application/Windows and dropped it on the screen. A Panel icon appeared in the Preferences.nib.

5. I then built and run. An empty window appeared. I chose Preferences... from the menu and the Preference panel appeared. I closed the Preference panel and tried to open it again by choosing Preferences... from the menu. But the panel didn't appear. What is the explanation??

_Two_ question marks just add panic. They won't make it more of a question. A peeve of mine.


I won't give an explanation, but perhaps a possible fix will do:

In Interface Builder, select the panel, then command-1 to see the attributes. Uncheck "Release When Closed."

(This was verified in IB 3, but I think it's still applicable in IB 2. I haven't verified the actual behavior, though.)
