Hi All,
My goal is to have a split view with a left side pane containing an
outline view - and 3 panes on the right on top of each other. To do
this I did the following:
1) created a split view that is split horizontally into 3 parts.
2) I then created another split view that is split vertically into 2
parts - and put the split view created in step 1 in the right pane.
The left pane has an NSOutlineView.
In one of the split view panes I put a NSTabView - and inside that
NSTabView I wish to put a form with labels, text boxes, etc. that is
also scrollable. I would also like to have the view with the form
elements defined in a separate *.xib (PatientsDemoForm.xib) file from
the main *.xib (MainMenu.xib).
I was able to set the content view of one of the NSTabViewItems to be
the view that's defined in the other *.xib - but I am having trouble
embedding that view in an NSScrollView. When it's *.xib file open and
I have the view selected all the options under "Layout->Embed Objects
In" are disabled.
I started looking at doing it programatically. I was wondering if
anyone could tell me if this is the best way to go about it - or if
there is a better way?
//Get the view from the View controller
NSView * v = [patientDemoVC view];
//Create a clibView
NSClipView * clipView = [[NSClipView alloc] init];
//Attach the view (i.e. the one that contains the form mentioned
above) to the clibView
[clipView setDocumentView:v];
//Create a scrollView
NSScrollView* scrollView = [[NSScrollView alloc] init];
//Attach the clibView to the scrollView
[scrollView setContentView:clipView];
//Set the scrollView as the content view of the tabview item.
NSTabViewItem * tvi = [[NSTabViewItem alloc] init];
[tvi setView:scrollView ];
I know that there is still some things I need to do in order to get
this to work - but I really would like to find out if I am going about
it the right way - or if I am "barking up the wrong tree.".
Thanks for your help!
