That's probably because you're installing the timer in the default runloop mode. While the mouse is down, AppKit is tracking the mouse using NSEventTrackingRunLoopMode. Try using that mode (or possibly , NSRunLoopCommonModes) instead. -eric _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
