Thanks for your help

I didn't have that line, so I've added it - and it has made no difference?!

The only thing I do before beginModalSessionForWindow is setup the window contents and size, and the nib is loaded when the plugin is loaded.

I can share more of the code if it will help?

Did you do
  [theDialogWindow makeKeyAndOrderFront:NULL]
before beginning the modal session?

Hi, I'm hoping someone will be able to point me in the right direction - I've done a little bit of searching, but I don't really know what I'm looking for, the error probably simply comes from my very limited knowledge of cocoa (and the debugging tools I should be looking at)!!

Anyway - I've written a plugin for a Dashboard Widget (my first proper bit of code) that simply opens a dialog window. I wrote it in Xcode 3 on Leopard and everything works fine, but I come to test it on Tiger and it fails.

To open the window I use the line:
[NSApp beginModalSessionForWindow:theDialogWindow];

And after this line has executed, the widget itself no longer excepts keyboard entry. The dialog window is fine and works and the widget seems ok as you can still flip it and press buttons, and it responses to callbacks from the plugin, but all key presses simply result in an error beep - incl cmd-r

I'm really confused over what I might try to resolve this


Any help would be fantastic, thanks


Ben.
