ADC: Technical Q&A QA1215,
Do I have to call CreateRootControl after creating my window?

"With the advent of Mac OS X 10.0 and 10.1, you no longer had to create
the root control yourself since the High Level Toolbox was doing it for you
automatically ... With the advent of Mac OS X 10.2, this API now matters
again."

ADC: Control Manager Reference

"The C-style, lowercase versions of Control Manager function names are no
longer supported. If your application uses any Control Manager lowercase
function names, you must replace them with their uppercase equivalents."

ADC: SetAutomaticControlDragTrackingEnabledForWindow

"Earlier versions of system software enabled automatic drag tracking by
default, but as of Mac OS X v10.1.3, Mac OS 9.2, and CarbonLib 1.4, you
must call this function to enable automatic drag tracking."

ADC: TN2074 - HIView APIs vs. Control Manager APIs

"Starting with Mac OS X 10.2, aka Jaguar, a new set of APIs has been
introduced to deal with all the User Interface elements (menus, windows,
controls, etc.).

Although these APIs are C-based, they are object-oriented in the spirit,
and all the "classes" derive from the base class which is HIObject. HIView
is a class which is providing all the functionalities, and more, previously
offered by the Control Manager.

This technote will provide some clarification on the similar APIs and similar
behaviors and will be of interest to all the developers who wish to base their
program's User Interface on the new HIToolbox model."

Something I've learned the hard way - you can't mix SetOrigin() with Control
Manager calls. Sometimes SetOrigin() affects contol's positioning, sometimes
it doesn't.

theList - default button problem

"I belatedly realized that SetDefaultButton won't work on OSX. Searched the
carbondev archive and found out that SetOrigin is no longer supported on OSX
making the button throbbing and gristling at the wrong place. it is a shocking
news to me."
