[Qt4-preview-feedback] Qt 4.5 Mac: QFileDialog appears only once as Sheet

[Axel Jäger]

Hi,
I get a similar problem here when just using the static  
QFileDialog::getOpenFileName(this) where this is my mainwindow.
The dialog is not shown as sheet and my application gets completely  
disabled after the user clicks OK. This was tested using the carbon  
backend. The cocoa-version does only disable most of my menu actions  
but the mainwindow stays usable.

Both blocking issues should be fixed.


But it would be also nice when the static methods of QFileDialog and  
QMessageBox would be changed in a way that allows window modal message  
boxes such as "Do you want to save your changes?" on a document window.
