Dialogs

During the review, if the user activates another unsaved document, it should come forward with its Save Before Quitting sheet open. Already-opened Save Before Quitting sheets on other documents remain open. During the review, if the user activates a saved document, the review process continues when the next unsaved document becomes active.

If, in the midst of a quit operation, the user clicks the application icon in the Dock or chooses Bring All to Front from the Window menu, documents should appear in this order: documents with open sheets on top, unsaved documents next, and then saved documents.

At any time during the review process, the user can click Cancel to stop the quit operation. If the user initiates a Quit command while in the review state, the process begins again with the application-modal alert shown in Figure 6-11 (page 112).

Saving a Document With the Same Name as an Existing Document

If the user types the name of a document that already exists in the same location into the “Save as” field of a Save dialog, and then clicks Save, present an application-modal alert in which the user can confirm whether or not to replace the previous document.
