Hey Sam -

Uncheck 'release when closed' option in the IB inspector for your HUD window if it is checked.

Good Luck -

As a simple project, I'm trying to implement a HUD panel inside of the TextEdit codebase. The HUD panel is in a separate nib ("HUD.nib") that has it's own controller which is separate from the File's Owner class.

I have two classes:

(1) Launcher.[hm] --- this is the File's Owner class.
(2) HUDControlller.[hm]

I've re-wired the "Find..." sub-menu item to launch the panel when firing showFindPanel:

The HUD panel opens successfully the first time when I use Cmd-F to "find" something. However, when I close the panel and try to re-open it, the system acts as if the panel has inadvertently been freed. Here's the backtrace:

For the record, the code isn't doing anything special. All I did was re-wire the main menu's Find->Find... submenu item to my Launcher class in the Edit.nib file. I then used NSBundle to load the secondary xib, set the File's Owner of the 2nd xib to Launcher, and had it point to the HUDController, which in turn performs - makeKeyAndOrderFront: on the HUD Panel when using Cmd-F.

Any ideas?

Sam
