NSPathControl not displaying icons initially

[Markus Spoettl]

I'm using an NSPathControl which is bound to the window controller's path property. The path control uses NSPathStylePopUp as style (statically set up in IB). The setup works correctly except that the path control does not display any directory icons initially. The icons are also missing from the path control's popup menu.

  [myPathControl setURL:[NSURL URLWithString:NSHomeDirectory()]];



What can one do to get icons right away? Is this a bug? Is this known?

I'm on Snow Leopard 10.6.1, Deployment target is 10.5

Regards
Markus

As soon as I use the control to select a path (even the same that is selected already), the icons appear. They are also added to the popup menu. It seems that somehow the control fails to use icons for the initial value. I also double-checked that this has nothing to do with bindings and/or the time the value is set. The problem also affects all different NSPathControl styles (standard, navigation, pop up). The problem is reproducible in Apple's ObjectPath sample project by adding a line of code to MyWindowController.m at Line 95: which sets the control's URL to a valid initial value. Same result, no icons until you select any path manually using the control.
