Is this the only way to stop that "formatting error" sheet? I tried it and it sure works. A major drawback, however, is that editing ends even if it was invalid. And that means I have to implement the control:textShouldEndEditing: method and return NO from there if the state is invalid and YES otherwise. If I combine this with the previous method (control:didFailToFormatString:errorDescription:) returning YES, it seems to be working. But even if it works, it is giving me some headaches because it seems like such a weird solution to get rid of a simple sheet. Why do I think it's weird? Because in the second method (control:didFailToFormatString:errorDescription:) I'm effectively doing all those validation checks all over again. Seems like a strange hack to me. > A custom NSNumberFormatter subclass can be used to block characters > that are not in decimalDigitCharacterSet and sound a beep.

It seems to be working beautifully. _________________________________________________________________ Drag n’ drop—Get easy photo sharing with Windows Live™ Photos. http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowslive/products/photos.aspx_______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
