Hi Quincy,
My app is a presentation app for presenting trial exhibits in a court room. The
main window of the app would consist of a tab view w/an NSTableView on one tab
and an IKImageBrowserView on the second tab -- both bound to the same
nsarraycontroller. The filter window would be for each document only, and would
be open just to create filters and then disappear.
By clicking on a particular image in the image view or on a particular row in
the table view, the user could then open a third window with a IKImageView or
PDFView showing a particular image or pdf -- which could then be sent to an
external display or projector.
So, 1 main window per document holding an array of images, with 1 window which
may stay open for a period of time to display an image, and another window which
will only appear for purposes of creating filters and filter the table and then
disappear.
So, at this point, if I had two documents open, I want to see 6 windows (3
windows per document); not 1 filter window for all documents.
