I'm trying to constrain the value of an NSSlider (while it is being dragged) depending on the state of a modifier key and being totally new to Cocoa am getting nowhere really fast! For a start, I don't seem to be able to find a way to test for a modifier key during the actual drag.

Can anyone help me here?

thanks!

To get the current modifier state during an event, -[NSEvent modifierFlags]; And -[NSApplication currentEvent] or -[NSWindow currentEvent] to get the current event (if you do not already have it).

OK but given, say, my own slidercell subclass, which event should I check in and how do I get a ref to the sliders window? I'm currently using 'continueTracking' which seems to be the right event to override:

- (BOOL)continueTracking:(NSPoint)lastPoint at:(NSPoint)currentPoint inView:(NSView *)controlView{
        // how do I get the modifier keys here
        //  and set the slider to some value if say the command key is pressed

        else
                // do the default thing
return [super continueTracking:lastPoint at:currentPoint inView:controlView];

}

thanks for your help,

Peter_______________________________________________
