Hello,
I have three token fields, each of which has a special case within
- (NSArray *)tokenField:(NSTokenField *)tokenField
completionsForSubstring:(NSString *)substring
indexOfToken:(int)tokenIndex
indexOfSelectedItem:(int *)selectedIndex
for when one of the fields contains a value vs when one does not.
For Example..
If Field 1 contains a value
Then Field 2 bases its completions off a sub-set of data based on the
value from Field 1.
Like so:
=================
---Field 1 (Group X)
-----Field 2 (Users only from Group X)
Or
---Field 1 (Empty)
-----Field 2 (Users from All Groups)
=================
Also - (id)tokenField:(NSTokenField *)tokenField
representedObjectForEditingString: (NSString *)editingString
returns the corresponding object for each NSTokenField(Cell?).
------------
Problem:
------------
Whenever a value is entered into Field 1, then Field 2 searches based
off it. Whenever a value is removed from Field 1, or Field 2, or both,
Field 2 now ALWAYS searches based on the data that WAS in Field 1 (but
is no longer.) This still occurs even if I [ TokenField
setStringValue:@"" ]; . From the UI perspective, the Field 1 token
field is empty, even programatically setting the field to be an empty
string, completionsForSubstring still acts as though there is a value
in Field 1, and follows the corresponding code path.
Here is how I check to see if there is a value in the field
if( [ [ TokenField objectValue ] count ] > 0 )
It works fine if I close the window & reopen it. But once a value is
committed to any field, it has the residual effect of impacting all
future completionsForSubstring, by effectively limiting the results to
only include Users from Group X, even when Field 1 is now "empty"
