Thank you for this! I didn't use your code directly, but I followed what you did in the BDSKSpotlightView source along with little bits from the other 2 and was able to get something going. It's just proof of concept and plugging it into my code right now, so I still have much work to do to get it working just right for my needs. But this is exactly the sort of thing I needed. Thank you for your help and for sharing this with me. -- John C.
