The timer approach isn't guaranteed to work. If you application were
to take dramatically longer for some (unforeseen) reason when loading
the associated nib the timer's firing could fall within the
awakeFromNib and you'd still end up with the issue you encountered.

Kerry,
Thanks for the tip. I decided to just put a timer in awakeFromNib
to start the sheet 0.2 seconds later, and it worked. Sumbitch. I
should also try your approach. Bug report?

I have a sheet that doesn't display properly. The sheet code is
called directly from -awakeFromNib. For some reason, the sheet
window
doesn't attach to the main window, it's just displayed next to it
(as
it's laid out in IB). Even stranger, for sanity's sake, I switched
the main window and the sheet in the sheet calling code, and the
main
window behaves properly as a sheet in this case!
I've checked the attributes of both of these windows in IB and tried
to set them to be identical, since my main window works as a sheet.
Does anyone know any attribute or condition that would prevent a
sheet from operating properly? I've used sheets many times and this
is the first time I've had this trouble.
I had a similar problem once (calling sheet in awakeFromNib), and
I think it
had to do with the fact that the window for the sheet wasn't open
yet. But I
could be misremembering.
In any case, I moved the code out of awake... and into
windowDidBecomeMain
(or similar). Of course you have to set the window's delegate for
this work.
