- Sub: Modal Dialogs and app4Events!?
-
- Once again I find myself confounded by a relatively unusual problem.
-
- I have a modal dialog that I put up using posemodally. It acts in all respects
- just like a modal dialog except that it is getting app4Events which causes it
- the application to be suspended/ switched out, whenever the mouse is pressed on
- a window of another app or the finder. It was my impression that modal dialogs
- are not switched out with the Dialog Manager dialogs.
-
- This is really no big deal except that for curiosities sake I looked at
- DemoDialogs and it does not switch out and gets mousedown events instead of
- app4Events. I am not completely sure that there is not something that I have
- done that is causing the differences but here is what I know:
-
- 1) both SIZE resources are identical except for the partition allocations.
- They both acceptSuspendAndResumeEvents etc.
- 2) I do nothing with the Application until events get to DispatchEvents. I
- make no conscious changes to event records.
-
- I am not sure how MacApp avoids getting switched out unless they make patches
- that cover this.
-
- Anyone have any ideas what is going on?
-
