Hi - sometime ago I developed Dockless, a nifty app that makes apps, well, dockless. But since Panther came out, it stopped working. I found one line in my code that was being stupid, so that explained the crashes people where seeing. What's bugging me now is that setting NSUIElement to be 1 doesn't seem to be working anymore! Is there a new way to do this in Panther that I'm missing? (highly likely)

Thanks,
Matt Fahrenbacher

IIRC, third-party developers were and are supposed to use LSUIElement and not NSUIElement. Perhaps Apple dropped support for NSUIElement in Panther?

Use LSUIElement.

Remember than Panther is more aggressive at caching the info.plist and such, so restart if you have any problems getting LSUIElement to work.
