What does "shows (modally)" mean? The initial first responder is the view that's *going to be* the first responder, when it's window becomes key. Panels don't become key at the same times as regular windows, so it's possible you need to call 'makeKeyAndOrderFront:' on the panel after showing it. Also, panels can be configured to become key "only when necessary", meaning you need to click on something that accepts first responder status in order to make the window key. You should check the setting of that property, too. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
