Thank you all very much. You know, I started this attempt by typing "[settings beginSheet" because I assumed all windows/windowControllers acted like savePanel, but XCode didn't give any code-completion suggestions for that. Then when I did some documentation research, I read that SavePanel's beginSheetModalForWindow:completionHandler: was a convenience method that really called NSApp's method. So I switched to NSApp. (Thanks for the modernization info about [NSApplication sharedApplication], Quincey!)
In retrospect it's obvious I went down a bad path because (a) I tried to use the window controller as a window: my original statement should have begun with "[settings.window beginSheet", which would have netted the code-completion assistance I was expecting; and (b) when I researched alternatives, I found out-of-date documentation. I appreciate you guys putting me right. -- Charles _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
