Thanks - that works perfectly, even animates the ‘hidden’ property smoothly
which I wasn’t getting with the animator proxy. I’ve yanked out most of the
proxies from the update method, don’t need them and it makes the code scruffy.
Now I know what I am looking for (NSAnimationContext runAnimationGroup..) I did
find an example in the docs, however it’s wrong and uses ‘[ NSView
layoutIfNeeded ]’ for the OSX example instead of layoutSubtreeIfNeeded .. you
can guess which method I was googling on :(
I’ll add ‘turn on layer-backed views’ to my OSX checklist, it seems like they
may act more like the world I’m used to. Pleased I learned UIKit first or I
wouldn’t even know what questions to ask, although even UIKit is slowly
crufting up.
One animation to go and it’s shipping time !
