I have a document-based app. For each document there can be a couple of
satellite windows brought up for specific views of some of the data. Each of
these satellite windows is controlled by an NSWindowController subclass loaded
by MyDocument and added via addWindowController:. A menu item's target is the
First Responder, and the method to implement the action is in MyDocument.
Everything works as expected when the primary window is key.
The problem is that when one of the satellite windows is key, menu items
implemented by MyDocument are disabled. I thought the responder chain went
through the NSWindowController and then through to its NSDocument? Or is this
only the case when for the document's primary window (and NSWindowController)?
Note: The work around is trivial. I just implemented the method name in the
satellite window's NSWindowController subclass and forwarded the call to the
document:
-(IBAction) doMenuThing: (id)sender
{
[[self document] doMenuThing: sender];
}
but I feel this isn't the "Cocoa Way" of doing it. Am I missing a configuration
step?
