It is my understanding that this piece of documentation is out of
date, and that on 10.5 and later overlapping sibling views are
fully supported.
I wouldn't mind having a definitive answer to this question (Apple
guys?), because my UI design would need to be completely different
depending on this info:
I have a group of views, each one with many smaller views inside,
which need to be presented in an overlapping manner over the same rect
on a window, so that they can be seen through each other. In my
preliminary tests, I made each big view a sibling of a single
background view. Was planning on bringing each one to the front, when
necessary by re-arranging the z-order. Is there any future (or
present) in this appoach?
