Here's some code that I've been using in an NSTextView subclass. It may be of
some use.
Martin
- (void) drawViewBackgroundInRect:(NSRect)rect
{
[super drawViewBackgroundInRect:rect];
NSRange sel = [self selectedRange];
NSString *str = [self string];
if (sel.location <= [str length]) {
NSRange lineRange = [str lineRangeForRange:NSMakeRange(sel.location,0)];
NSRect lineRect = [self highlightRectForRange:lineRange];
NSColor *highlightColor = [NSColor grayColor];
[highlightColor set];
[NSBezierPath fillRect:lineRect];
}
}
// Returns a rectangle suitable for highlighting a background rectangle for the
given text range.
- (NSRect) highlightRectForRange:(NSRange)aRange
{
NSRange r = aRange;
NSRange startLineRange = [[self string]
lineRangeForRange:NSMakeRange(r.location, 0)];
NSInteger er = NSMaxRange(r)-1;
NSString *text = [self string];
if (er >= [text length]) {
return NSZeroRect;
}
if (er < r.location) {
er = r.location;
}
NSRange endLineRange = [[self string] lineRangeForRange:NSMakeRange(er, 0)];
NSRange gr = [[self layoutManager]
glyphRangeForCharacterRange:NSMakeRange(startLineRange.location,
NSMaxRange(endLineRange)-startLineRange.location-1)
actualCharacterRange:NULL];
NSRect br = [[self layoutManager] boundingRectForGlyphRange:gr
inTextContainer:[self textContainer]];
NSRect b = [self bounds];
CGFloat h = br.size.height;
CGFloat w = b.size.width;
CGFloat y = br.origin.y;
NSPoint containerOrigin = [self textContainerOrigin];
NSRect aRect = NSMakeRect(0, y, w, h);
// Convert from view coordinates to container coordinates
aRect = NSOffsetRect(aRect, containerOrigin.x, containerOrigin.y);
return aRect;
}
