Re: NSURLConnection Problem Inside QuickLook Generator

Additional action when a view's value changes (Cocoa Bindings)

Hi all! I got a NSTextView and an NSStepper binded together, so that the textfield's and the stepper's values are in sync. This is very confinient, however I need additional things to be done whenever the value changes (basically just a method invocation). So far I've accomplished that by not u

You could have the background of the screen respond to touch events, so that when the background receives a touch, it forces the first responder to resign that status, thereby causing the keyboard to disappear. Dave On Dec 9, 2009, at 9:38 PM, Paul Archibald wrote: > Is that the only solution?
