That method doesn't do what you think it does. The docs say pretty clearly you should pass it a rect "in the receiver’s coordinate system". This is a method of NSView, so the receiver is the view, and question is what is the rect being converted to? I *partly* blame the docs and/or the method name, because it isn't clear what "base" means in the method name. This has always bugged me. As far as I can tell it means the window's coordinate system, so I don't know why they didn't name the method "convertRectToWindow:". Anyway, check out NSView's window method, and NSWindow's convertBaseToScreen: method. See the docs for what these methods return. --Andy > This creates a rectangle of the correct size but the origin is always, no > matter what, 15,183. > I'm totally lost here and don't even know what to search for now that my > other attempts have failed. > Could some one help me out? > I'm hoping to find something with low overhead as clicks are a > factor._______________________________________________ > > Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) > > Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list. > Contact the moderators at cocoa-dev-admins(at)lists.apple.com > > Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: > http://lists.apple.com/mailman/options/cocoa-dev/aglee%40mac.com > > This email sent to ag...@mac.com _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
