Apple didn't feel that way in the past, so I don't believe it's user-hostile. It sure doesn't make me hostile because I don't go off and do a bunch of other crap with other docs after I've decided to bring up an Open dlog. Even so, this is NOT the issue. The issue is that the dlog doesn't go away when it should, and I'd like to find a way to make it go away. I tried creating and draining an NSAutoreleasePool - didn't work. I tried orderOut and even close - didn't work. I'll take a look at Bryan's suggestion next.
