Hi All,
I have created an Agent Application using key - Application is agent
(UIElement) = true in Info.plist file.

Problem # 1). my AboutBox window is not getting displayed.

Here is my code snippet -

AppController.h

@interface AppController : NSObject

{

// some more data member to run app as Menulet item.

IBOutlet NSWindow *aboutBox;

}


- (IBAction) displayAboutBox: (id) sender;



AppController.m


- (IBAction) displayAboutBox: (id) sender

{

NSLog(@"AppController : displayAboutBox : called");

[aboutBox makeKeyAndOrderFront: NSApp];

}


Problem # 2). When - Application is agent (UIElement) = false in Info.plist
file. I can see the AboutBox but that is also not as top of all app windows.
I get the AboutBox but I have to search for window in all applications.



Regards,

Cocoa.learner


Send a activateIgnoringOtherApps:YES message to NSApp before the makeKeyAndOrderFront: message.
