I believe a drawer is actually treated as a separate window, which probably confuses things when attached to a window that is modal. I'm not sure why the tableview scrolls, but this would explain why the other controls aren't accessible.

Perhaps you could move the drawer contents into an area in the modal window, which is only shown when a disclosure triangle thingy is clicked.

I'm working on a plugin that needs to do some involved setup, and I'm handling this in a modal window since the setup has to be done in an atomic fashion. The window also has an attached drawer. What I'm finding is that I can open and close the drawer, and a table view in the drawer will scroll if I move a scroll wheel while the mouse is over the table, but if I click on any of the controls in the drawer, I just hear a beep instead of having something useful happen.

Is this expected behavior? Is there any way to allow the drawer to process user events or should I give up on the drawer?
