Thank you, I had that implemented. The problem still persist where my subclass of NSWindow gets focused and deactivates the current running program's window. I want to have NSWindow to get keyboard/mouse events and still not deactivate/lose focus of your current running application.
Let's say I have Safari in focus, currently running, and when user clicks on my menu bar application, pop up menu appears and listens for keyboard/mouse events. But safari window still remains active, or at least doesn't lose focus on the window.
