I have a small, relatively simple document based application that I created using Xcode 2.4 and Interface Builder 2.5.4 on a Mac running Tiger. Recently, I moved it to my new iMac running Leopard. On the old Mac, document windows cascade, just as expect, but on my new Mac running Leopard and Xcode 3.0 and Interface Builder 3.0, the document windows no longer cascade.

Apple's "Window Programming Guide for Cocoa" says " If you use the Cocoa document architecture, you can use the NSWindowController setShouldCascadeWindows: method to set whether the window, when it is displayed, should cascade in relation to other document windows (that is, have a slightly offset location so that the title bars of previously displayed windows are still visible). The default is true, so typically you have no additional work to perform." This seems no longer to be the case.

I'm reasonably certain that I've not changed anything that would account for the difference (famous last words that I'm prepared to eat, if necessary). Has anyone else noticed this behavior? Is there a setting that I've missed/a fix that I can apply?

I got the same problem with an application of mine, that manages two different kinds of documents. The first type is normal text (plain, RTF or RTFD) and the window cascading works as expected with these documents. The other one is a custom type containing histograms of spectra. For this last type the window cascading doesn't work anymore since the upgrade to Leopard. I'm currently using Xcode 3.0 and the matching version of IB and I didn't modilfy the pertaining code. Unfortunately, I'm very busy now with my teaching duties, but I plan to investigate this conundrum ASAP.
