So which is it? You can look at the Print menu item in the MainMenu.xib and see what its action and target are set to. Target is likely to be nil (first responder) but you can set it directly to be the view if it's defined in MainMenu.xib. That will help avoid the message going to the wrong object in the simple case where there are not multiple windows that can become the target for Print at different times. > Now I expected "Print" would only execute the NSLog.

In order for your custom view to become first responder, it must also return YES from -acceptsFirstResponder but mouse events in the outline view can change that to be first responder, so to avoid unexpected surprises with Print, I suggest you set the view to be the menu item's direct target. NSView has a default implementation of print (inherited by NSOutlineView). Also, to set the custom view to be the initial first responder, you can connect the window's initialFirstResponder outlet to it, to save having to do that in -awakeFromNib, but that still requires that the view acceptsFirstResponder to function. --Graham _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
