I have a non-document based app. It's a master detail layout with a NSOutlineView and a custom NSView (in a NSScrollView in a NSSplitView) on the right. Now when I initiate a "Print" from the menu all that shows up in the print preview is the outline view.
Reading the documentation from http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Printing/Concepts/architecture.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/20001053-BAJCHHJG "Printing is generally initiated by the user choosing the Print menu command, which usually sends either a print: or printDocument: message, depending on whether the application is NSDocument-based or not, up the responder chain. You receive the message either in a custom NSView object (if it has the keyboard focus), a window delegate, or an NSDocument object. Upon receipt, you create an NSPrintOperation object to manage the print job, tell it which NSView to print, add an accessory view to its print panel, if desired, and then run the operation. The NSView class defines several methods that you can override to control how the view is divided between multiple pages. From there, the view’s drawRect: method draws the view’s contents" So I thought I could just implement "print:" in my custom view and make that view the first responder. @implementation CustomView - (void) print:(id)sender { NSLog(@"PRINT"); } @end ... - (void)awakeFromNib { [[self window] makeFirstResponder:self.customView]; Now I expected "Print" would only execute the NSLog. But still the print dialog comes up and has the NSOutlineView only in the preview. What am I missing here? cheers, Torsten _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
