I've been hitting this bug in my own version of BD where converting a field
(e.g. year={2010}) to complex (year=2010) doesn't work, and it's been driving
me crazy. Some tedious debugging indicates that NSTableView has an
optimization where the value won't be changed if the string doesn't change.
Hacking around that proved a bit more challenging than I expected, because of
the interaction of the formatter, cell, field editor, and tableview...which all
combine somehow. Anyway, here's what I came up with:
http://tcobrowser.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/tcobrowser/trunk/bibdesk/BDSKEditorTableView.m?r1=1551&r2=1619
The latest nightly build has the same problem, but I suspect this code would
work as-is. There are likely other ways around it, but I don't have any more
time to waste on it...I'm just happy that I no longer have to delete a value
and reset it! I realize that it's largely pointless to do this for numbers,
but sometimes 3rd parties use "month={jun}" or something.
