Hi,
I've had a look at the docs for NSTextField it doesn't have a '-
drawAtPosition' type method. When I'm drawing on the NSView I want to
be able to place editable text at different positions. I only think
it is possible to predefine where a NSTextField should be drawn;
using Gorm, and then subsequently change the values. I should have
made that clear.
I am drawing strings containing numbers. They are axis tic mark
labels for a plotting programme. This is why I would like this
editable functionality.
Cheers,
Dan

Hello.
I am drawing a NSCell in a NSView subclass using,
NSCell *cell = [[NSCell alloc] initTextCell:@"NSCell"];
[cell setStringValue:@"blahh blahh"];
I now want the user to be able to edit the next by clicking it
with the
mouse. When the editing is finished I then want to extract the new
value. I have tried using,
[cell setEnabled:YES];
[cell setSelectable:YES];
[cell setEditable:YES];.
However, this did not appear to do anything. I assume that I need to
tell the NSCell exactly how to repond to the mouse. How do I do
this? I
have found,
-editWithFrame: inView: editor: delegate: event:
in the GNUstep documentation but I'm unsure on how to start using it.
Why aren't you using a NSTextField here. Most likely this is what you
are looking for. If you want to stick with a bacic NSCell then you
will
have to use your own NSControl subclass and change the method
mouseDown:
for it. Again you should have a look at NSTextField to see what you
need
to do.
Hope this helps,
Fred
