I have a PyObjC Document-based Application set up by Xcode (2.4). When I build the default project, but and then change the document window to contain an NSTableView, the app prints the data from the TableView. I would like to take charge of the print operation to print a modified version of the view.
According to the docs, for a Cocoa app, my "NSDocument subclass must override printShowingPrintPanel: to create and run the print operation for the document." A Cocoa Document-based Application will not print if you don't do this, whereas the PyObjC one doesn't need to do this (and in fact won't call the method if I do override it in my NSDocument subclass). I thought of adding a modified Print item to the File menu, but I don't know how to connect the new menu item to my NSDocument subclass. In MainMenu.nib, File's Owner's class is NSApplication. I can set my NSDocument to be the App delegate, but there doesn't seem to be an appropriate delegate method for printing. I thought of trying to put my document at the front of the responder chain, but I can't get to the window. File's owner in the document.nib file has an outlet set to the window, but when I do "print self.window" from the document I get "None." What's the right way to do this? Thanks.
