Hi Eric
I was going through your last messages on this list, because I'm
working on a similar problem.
Reading through the code snippets you showed here, it isn't clear to
me how your controls are being created.
Are you creating a subclass of NSControl and afterwards add your GUI
elements as sub-views programatically?
I could not figure out if you use one NSControl with NSCell's, sorry
if I missed it.
[snip]
Unfortunately, it does not work either.
If anyone has any further ideas on how to correctly end an editing
session of a NSTextField, I am interested.
To summarize the proposed and failed solutions:
*** [[[self view] window] endEditingFor:nil];
Pressing return or pressing the tab key will not end the editing
session
As far as I understand, TAB will focus the next control using the
responder chain.
It is not really remove the editor, because you could TAB back to your
control/cell
and still have the same state for editing.
*** [[[self view] window] makeFirstResponder:[self view]];
Pressing return will allow the editing session to end, but pressing
the tab key will not.
I would suggest you write a small debug function to output the
responder chain.
Call it after all your elements are setup and again after you started
editing.
*** NSTextView *fieldEditor = [[aNotification userInfo]
objectForKey:@"NSFieldEditor"];
NSView *v = fieldEditor;
while ( v && ( [v superview] != [aNotification object] ) )
v = [v superview];
[v removeFromSuperview];
Pressing return or pressing the tab key will not end the editing
session
It works for me using one NSView only drawing NSCell objects.
But it was only a hack I tried to remove the field editor.
What happens when you NSLog all views you traverse on your way up?
Could you send the output?
The editing session was started with:
[textField selectText:nil];
This is a complete NSTexyField added as a subview to your NSControl,
not a NSTextFieldCell?
Could you tell a bit more about how your abjects are created/setup, if
you don't mind?
I'm asking because I work on a similar problem, implementing one
NSView class drawing multiple (editable) NSCell objects.
Regards
Patrick
