wxMac & Plug-in Hosting

[Stefan Csomor]

Hi

Sorry, I first missed what the real issue was in this thread 

On mac top-level windows are totally different (WindowRef) from controls (ControlRef / HIViewRef (these types are interchangeable)), a GetHandle() always returns a ControlRef, either for a sub control or for the background panel of the top-level window.

If you want a WindowRef from a toplevel window frame / dialog you need to call MacGetWindowRef on that instance or MacGetTopLevelWindowRef() on any sub window

Best,

Stefan
