I have a field editor which I need to reposition in my tableView –
specifically, I need to move it a few pixels to the right. The
following post:
http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2009/3/16/232513
makes two suggestions: (i) implement the move in -viewWillDraw in the
field editor subclass, and (ii) reposition the field editor after
calling super in -editColumn:row:withEvent:select: in the tableView
subclass. Neither of these seem to make any difference to where the
field editor is drawn. Here is my code with respect to (i), contained
in the field editor subclass:
-(void)viewWillDraw
{
NSRect frame = [self frame];
NSLog(@"Old: %f",frame.origin.x);
frame.origin.x += 50.0;
[self setFrame:frame];
frame = [self frame];
NSLog(@"New: %f",frame.origin.x);
[super viewWillDraw];
}
Now, I can confirm this method is being called, and by means of the
NSLog statements, the frame is being changed prior to the call to
super. Unfortunately, the field editor is drawn where is usually is
drawn, with no shift in place.
With respect to (ii), contained in the tableView subclass:
-(void)editColumn:(NSInteger)columnIndex row:(NSInteger)rowIndex
withEvent:(NSEvent *)theEvent select:(BOOL)flag
{
[super editColumn:columnIndex row:rowIndex withEvent:theEvent
select:flag];
NSText *fieldEditor = [[self window] fieldEditor:YES forObject:self];
NSRect fieldEditorFrame = [fieldEditor frame];
fieldEditorFrame.origin.x += 50.0;
[fieldEditor setFrame:fieldEditorFrame];
}
Here, it turns out that even though fieldEditor points to the custom
field editor object, fieldEditorFrame turns out to be empty. And
again, the field editor is drawn where it is usually drawn, with no
shift in place.
Any help would be greatly
appreciated._______________________________________________
