some of you may recall a previous thread of mine: ‘showing load progress for
autosaved documents’; this is a recast version.
from what i can discern, in the base case, application windows do not show
until autosaved documents have loaded, which makes it difficult to show load
progress on these.
you may wish to look up ‘Delta E’. [what has this to do w/ cocoa?]

the controls appear sufficiently displaced from the rendering: can’t you
decease the height of your tracking rect in order to inhibit mouseMoved in this

if a control changes rendering on entry, as well as the cursor, mouseEntered is

thank you for this graham!
at present, i’m finding it difficult to find a point, prior to NSDocument
initializing autosaved documents, to show a progress window. everything above
readFromURL is off the main thread & there is nothing in the application

this was easily accomplished in carbon. when i ported from carbon [in 2011] i

that’s how i should do it. particularly, if you have complicated selections
