Re: NSWindow styleMask warning on bit 0x10

Hey David -

0x0F is 0000 1111 in binary, Ox10 is 0001 0000 in binary, so the IB 
windows that come with a style mask of 0x0F don't have 0x10 set. 0x10 
is 'NSUtilityWindowMask' from NSPanel.h. If you make your window into 
a panel in IB by changing the custom class to 'NSPanel' you'll be able 
to uncheck the 'utility mask' option in the attributes inspector. IB 
3.0 clears this bit for you when you downgrade a NSPanel to an 
NSWindow. Did you create this nib with IB 2.x initially and then 
downgrade an NSWindow to an NSPanel?

Good Luck -
Jon Hess
