You’ll end up working with NSTextView regardless. NSTextField doesn’t do its own text editing, it overlays a text view called the ‘field editor’ that’s used by all controls in the window. So to make this work in a text field you’d need to create a tricked-out text view and then install it as a custom field editor on that text field. —Jens_______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list ([email protected]) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
