NSOutlineView setDoubleAction: working on 10.5, but not on 10.4.11

2008-11-15 Thread Nick Rogers
Hi, when double clicking on an item the action method is not being called in 10.4.11. While the Apple docs say it is "Available in Mac OS X v10.0 and later." Is there something I may be missing. Its working fine on Leopard. Thanks, Nick ___ Cocoa-

Layer-backed NSOpenGLView not showing up

Hello, I am trying to programmatically create an NSOpenGLView and have it layer-backed. I would use CAOpenGLLayer except that I am using a subclass of NSOpenGLView and I don't have the time to rewrite it. Now, for some reason I can not get the NSOpenGLView to show up. If I use the same

I'll find a reference when I get a chance, but I recall reading somewhere that what you're trying to do won't work. You will need to use CAOpenGLLayer if you want to add sub-layers to it. Just to test it, don't add the sub-layer and see if it shows up then. If it doesn't then you may have o

Thanks for the reply. I just tried it, but no luck. Still getting a "event not handled" error. The script runs fine from the Script editor so all I can think of is that the subroutine option is broken in both NSAppleScript and OSAScript. Is this a known bug in Apple's script frameworks? I'v
