NSTextView Text Length

2014-04-15 Thread Gordon Apple
Is there any way to get a notification or set an observer on NSTextView¹s used text length? After much research, I have not found a way other than to pole the layout manager for usedRectForTextContainer. This must exist internally because the textView has to communicate with the containing scrollVi

Ah. Somehow, I totally missed the fact that NSText has its own delegate protocol. That did it. Thanks. On 4/15/14 7:20 PM, "Graham Cox" wrote: > > On 16 Apr 2014, at 9:57 am, Gordon Apple wrote: > >> > Is there any way to get a notification or set an observer on

We would like to get a recommendation on the best way to generate a help system for a fairly complex application. We started by using a simple web view and created about 120 screens in BBEdit, mostly drill-down outlines. Unfortunately, this has been proven to be difficult to maintain. We¹ve looked

Wow! That¹s quite an indictment of one of Apple, Inc¹s supposed developer tools. You¹d think that with $190B cash, they could fix this. One of the problems I ran into is that I couldn¹t find the indexing tool without going back to old versions. When I tried to use it, it choked, spewing a litany o

Unwanted Animations

2014-05-24 Thread Gordon Apple
Two separate issues: 1. CALayer Animation. I have a movie sublayer which has an observer to track an underlying draw object¹s bounds. When dragging the object, the movie layer position lags. I¹ve tried ³removeAnimationForKey:@²position², and ³removeAllAnimations² when creating the layer. I¹ve al

Kyle, if you read my first post, I want the user to be able to show the toolbar if corrections or changes are needed in real-time. This only applies to one window, and only when capturing from the content area of that window. I would prefer that the captured video did not show toolbar animation and

Drop on a NSCollectionView

Can¹t seem to get this to work. I have a collection view in a popover (dismissed with a ³close² button) launched from a sheet. Delegate is set to controller which declares NSCollectionViewDelegate, implements the validate and accept drop protocols. Collection view (not the enclosing scroll view) is

I¹m not clear as to what your view/nib structure is. If you are using a view nib, I recommend using a custom viewController and, in awakeFromNib, setting a local property (maybe from an IBOutlet) to the array controller. Trying to bind anything to an array controller through a view controller¹s rep
