window unresponsive after re-opening

Scripting Forums AppleScriptObjC and Xcode

Hi,
must be missing the obvious again :slight_smile:

I have a window (myLittleWindow) with a couple of text fields in it and a button that sets a static field in my main window and saves a bit of text to disk.
All of this works fine.
The window is opened from the menu with makeKeyAndOrderFront and is closed with the titlebar close button.
Again all of this works.

However if I open it a second time my text fields and button are completely unresponsive.
The main window still works perfectly.

I’ve tried making my own close button (using myLittleWindow’s orderOut_() and performClose_()—with sender and me in the parens)

In the Attributes panel of the Inspector, is Release When Closed unchecked?

Hi Shane,
It is checked. That’s right isn’t it?

thanks

Should have checked BEFORE replying.
I unchecked it and it seems OK now

Thanks Shane
