Not really enough to go on. Just this morning I was debugging some custom cell code that lives inside a NSOutlineView and this method was indeed called as expected. Are you expecting this method to be invoked by your tracking handler? Normally it's called by a mouseDown in the table. You need to show some code. --Graham _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
