Make sure you do self.textShadow = nil before self goes away, that's what gets rid of the observers on it. On Jun 27, 2014, at 1:21 PM, Leonardo wrote: While the user moves the selection within an NSTextView, I show on the UI the values of the current textShadow: offsetX, offsetY and blur. In

Re: NSButton, Templates, images…

According to rdar://9643033, which I filed 3 years ago, the bezelStyle has to be NSTexturedRoundedBezelStyle, and it'll work in 10.6 if bordered is NO, but 10.7 needs a border. I don't know if the bordered part is still required; I came up with a workaround to get just the image in the style I

Re: Dictionaries or custom class containing no methods?

Doesn't seem weird to me, I do it all the time. One advantage of using a custom class over a dictionary is that the compiler knows what's expected of it, while a dictionary is just a black box. On Jun 17, 2014, at 3:21 PM, Trygve Inda wrote: I need to store a large collection of settings

Re: NSOutlineView floating group row question

Actually, the default color you get from IB may not be the proper color: rdar://16040037 View-based SourceList header cell default text color should not be a custom It's 49% gray, instead of a named system color. One effect of that is that it's an unreadable gray on blue when selected. It

Re: Contextual menus in view-based NSOutlineView

In my cell-based table I created an empty menu whose delegate was the outlineView, then implemented menuNeedsUpdate:, and it didn't need to change for view-based. I think it came from Apple sample code originally, and is basically NSInteger clickedRow = [outlineView clickedRow]; if

Re: Another dumb question about NSWindowController(s)

Delete that init method. Xcode has a standard template and doesn't change it when you tick the make a xib file checkbox. Replace it with - (id)init { return [self initWithWindowNibName:@myGeneratedNibFileName]; } There are plenty of sample apps you can download from Apple that use windows

Re: Simple question? NSButton/checkbox color

There's no supported way to do it and never has been; back in the day when Java's compatibility test had a set button color, the MacLookAndFeel got an exemption because it's just not possible. If you look in the Calendar app bundle it has grayscale checkbox images, which they probably colorize

In my -setFoo: method, I set up KVO on the properties of the foo that I'm interested in displaying. In the -observe... method, I update the various bits of UI as properties change. If you're doing something like this: - (void)setFoo: (Foo *)aFoo { [foo removeObserver:self
