I had that very same problem in RBSplitView. The only solution I found is to
always return NO in mouseDownCanMoveWindow, then move the window "manually"
inside mouseDown like this:
- (void)mouseDown:(NSEvent*)theEvent {
NSWindow* window = [self window];
NSPoint where = [theEvent locationInWindow];
if (...test for your rect here...) {
where = [window convertBaseToScreen:where];
NSPoint origin = [window frame].origin;
// Now we loop handling mouse events until we get a mouse up event.
while ((theEvent = [NSApp
nextEventMatchingMask:NSLeftMouseDownMask|NSLeftMouseDraggedMask|NSLeftMouseUpMask
untilDate:[NSDate distantFuture] inMode:NSEventTrackingRunLoopMode
dequeue:YES])&&([theEvent type]!=NSLeftMouseUp)) {
// Set up a local autorelease pool for the loop to prevent buildup of temporary
objects.
NSAutoreleasePool* pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc]
init];
NSPoint now = [window convertBaseToScreen:[theEvent
locationInWindow]];
origin.x += now.x-where.x;
origin.y += now.y-where.y;
// Move the window by the mouse displacement since the last event.
[window setFrameOrigin:origin];
where = now;
[pool release];
}
}
}
