Re: This winodw has a parent window

Just double-checking -- although the window you mean to print from isn't a sheet, was there a sheet just prior to opening the print panel?  For example, if for some odd reason you had a sheet that confirms "Do you want to print?", you might want to explicitly close that sheet before opening the print panel.

You could use gdb to look into the view hierarchy of 0x9cc300 which might tell you what the panel in question is:

    po [[0x9cc300 contentView] subviews]

Working the other way, you could see what windows have the panel as a parent view (though I suspect it's just the print panel):

    po [0x9cc300 childWindows]

No, it isn't.

What is this about? Does it mean anything? Is there something I may be doing wrong? BTW, the misspelling is not mine, this is exactly what the log says.
