Hello all.
Im just wondering why changing the tint color using the
setControlTint of the progress bar to NSGraphiteControlTint doesn't
has any effect, I keep seeing that aqua colors...
I have tried finding answers online but it seems everybody has that
problem.. or everybody is doing something wrong.. hehehe.. including me.
what am I doing wrong?
here is the code that I use to create the progress indicator
progressIndicator = [[NSProgressIndicator alloc]
initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(10, 5, 280, 8)];
[progressIndicator setMinValue:0.0f];
[progressIndicator setMaxValue:100.0f];
[progressIndicator setDoubleValue:50.0f];
[progressIndicator setIndeterminate:NO];
[progressIndicator setBezeled:YES];
[progressIndicator setControlTint:NSGraphiteControlTint];
[progressIndicator setDisplayedWhenStopped:YES];
[self.view addSubview:progressIndicator];
Thx
Gustavo

I'm loading files into a UIWebView on an iPad and need to be able to
scroll them programatically to positions in the displayed files.
Many of these files are PDF, but generally it could be any of the
types supported by loadRequest. I'm able to do what I want using
JavaScript if I set up my UIWebView with "scalesPagesToFit = NO".
However, doing that looks terrible.
The problem with allowing automatic scaling is that I know my
scrolling requirements in screen units but JavaScript interprets them
as document units. Depending on the original file and the iPad
orientation the error factors I've seen are in the 20-to-40% range.
How do I set "scalesPagesToFit = YES" and know what scaling was applied?
(I have a truly terrible hack in mind but I hope to be saved from
that madness. :-) )

I connect a menu item to an action in first responder. The action is
defined in a .h and .m in the project
In applicationDidFinishLaunching I alloc, init and retain an object
that contains the action connected to the menu item in first responder.
At run time the menu item is not enabled. I don't get it.
I guess this is basic but I have done this before with no problem.
Advice please.

Is the object in the responder chain at all? The menu item can't
magically know about the object; it needs to look through the
responder chain to find it.

If the object isn't in the responder chain, it can't respond. If it's
not a subclass of NSResponder, it can't be in the responder chain.
The application delegate itself is in the responder chain (on behalf
of NSApplication), so this is where the action should be implemented
(even if it just passes it on to the helper object). If something in
the responder chain can respond to the action, the menu item will be
automatically enabled.

The object is a subclass of NSResponder with overridden

That still doesn't make it part of the responder CHAIN. You have to
put it in the chain.

I recently ot bit by this. it seems that the window will only be
allocated when you call showWindow. Just reorder you sequence.

Penchant is a great word. Did you know that the average vocabulary is
less that 200 words? And I be penchant is not in that set.
I guess I should rethink my design although I got around things by
getting a pointer the Menu Item and then setting its target to be my
object. I just thought this is a few steps too many
1. define an outlet - one line of code
2. connect the outlet - one IB action
3. set the target on the outlet - one more line of code
Seems like a lot. But if my action was in a view in the view
hierarchy all is well with just an IB connection.
Comments ?

Yes, this is the point of the responder chain. It is very much related
to what views and windows are onscreen, and where the keyboard focus
happens to be at the time.
If you always want your message to go to the same object (by which I
do _not_ mean "the same type of object in each window"), then it is
appropriate to point the menu item's target property at your object.
But if the object you want to message exists in one or more instance
per window, you should use the responder chain. That might mean that
your window controller might need to respond to the action message and
forward it along to the object in question.

let me now set Files Owner window to my window.

Hello.
I did all I know, and all I found in the Framework programming guide.
The header file is checked on the Frameworks' target, and I see it
when I open the "Copy Headers" build step. However --- in the built
Framework, there's no "Headers" directory, and no header files.
Please advise....
