I assume you actually mean the window's NSDocument (or subclass thereof) - there is only one shared NSDocumentController in an app. How are you creating the secondary windows? If you instantiate the controllers yourself you need to add them as subcontrollers of the document using its -addWindowController: method. Oops. Yes, MyDocument is a subclass of NSDocument and BrowserViewController is a subclass of NSWindowController In MyDocument I have a method that has the following code: BrowserViewController* bvc; bvc = [[[BrowserViewController alloc] init] autorelease]; // init loads NIB [self addWindowController:bvc]; [bvc showWindow:self]; Both MyDocument and BrowserViewController implement the method (which is the action for the menu item): - (IBAction) extractAuditSession: (id) sender; But the menu item is only available when the window associated with MyDocument is key. When the window associated with BrowserViewController is key, the menu item is dimmed out.
