Hello,

My app has a NSTextField on a UI window to accept user input and to display a NSNumber in a model object. The NSTextField and the NSNumber are bound using Cocoa Bindings, and the NSTextField is set a NSNumberFormatter. It is a very simple UI but I have two problems regarding this NSTextField (NSNumberFormatter) which I don't know how to fix.

One is that the NSTextField can't be blank. When I enter a number in the NSTextField then delete the number, an alert panel appears to show "Format error" and require to fill a number in the NSTextField. I would like to leave the NSTextField blank when the number is deleted, would like to set nil to the NSNumber bound in the model object, and would like to disable
the alert panel but I don't know how.

The other problem may be the same problem as the first one. I have a method which handles the NSNumber in the model object and after all computations using the NSNumber finishes, the NSNumber is set nil at the end of the method. But the NSTextField bound to this NSNumber isn't cleared and continue to have the same number before the computation, while the NSNumber in the model object becomes nil. This breaks a synchronization between the UI and the model object and I would like to know how to fix this too.

Thank you,
Chataka
