You need to implement NSView -hitTest: to get mouseDown events.
I have 5 working Cocoa apps, and none implement hitTest. It is apparently needed
for special circumstances, per the docs "to have a view object hide mouse-down
events from its subviews”.
The OP said NSView subclasses. Not NSControl. So he needs to implement
hitTest to get mouseDown events. If you read the sentence before the line you
quoted: "This method is used primarily by an NSWindow object to determine
which view should receive a mouse-down event.”. NSView returns nil from hitTest by
default, so raw NSViews don’t get mouseDown events.
I am the OP. :)
I do have on this Mac 5 working Cocoa apps with at least one NSView subclass
that receives mouseDown events but does not implement hitTest. In short I have
never implemented hitTest, and have always had my NSView subclasses receive
mouseDown events. This hybrid app situation is the first exception.
So maybe nil from hitTest has a special interpretation.
