Seems to work for me
This works for me. I haven't found a single Carbon app (not even the finder) that can make the UI elements react to a command-click without activating the app. But Cocoa apps do this fine. To test: Open a new finder window, go to a folder that activates the vertical scrollbar. Go to a different app and try to command-drag the scrollbar tab. The Finder activates. Now try it with SNAX. SNAX will stay in the background.
Ditto here...
I tested this before I published it -- excluding click and drag on a window title bar, any click in the Finder (or IE or Mozilla or about five others I tested it with) brings the app immediately to the foreground; a command-click in a Cocoa app does no such thing.

Gotta say it works. Cool! You naysayers aren't just command-dragging the window titlebar are you? That ain't the tip.

Well, let's not make a Federal case out of it, but the original hint said:
The simplest UI element is the window itself, and that's what I manipulated in trying a quick test of the theory. Ah, but the window doesn't belong to the app. The window is provided for the app by the window manager. So, yes, you're right, and I am a very silly el bid. But as I say, let's not make a Federal case out of it. :-) -- el bid |
