Thanks for the reply Markus Currently there is 4 NSTrackingAreas, one over each drag handle. I had one for the main object itself since it can be moved, but removed that in attempts to debug the issue. Resetting hasn’t been an issue, it seems just getting it to trigger has been the issue. The drag handles are 12pt x 12pt. Went bigger to see if that would help. This is on a static object that hasn’t yet been moved or resized. Seems to be very random, works about 2-3 times out of 4 attempts. I think I’ll try your’s and Edward’s suggestion on attempt mouseEntered / mouseMoved with a single tracking area. I feel I copied an example from Apple’s docs almost verbatim and was still getting iffy results. Again, I am building on 10.10 for 10.10, so maybe there is something there. It seems like a very straight forward attempt. I’ll reply with results, most likely tomorrow because I’m working on another feature right now. Thanks so much for everyone’s help today - Cody _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
