Just like any other rect: use NSMakeRect(), or just set the fields directly. But more importantly, read the section of the AppKit release notes named "Changes for Resolution Independence": http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#releasenotes/Cocoa/AppKit.html In Mac OS X 10.7, the "base" coordinate system doesn't exist anymore; windows and screens share the same coordinate system, modulo the origin. All -[NSWindow convertRectToScreen:] does is translate the passed-in rect by the window's origin. No scaling is required. So you could just as easily translate a point yourself: NSWindow window = /* ...*/ NSPoint pointInWindowSpace = /* ... */; NSPoint pointInScreenSpace; NSPoint windowOrigin = [window frame].origin; pointInScreenSpace.x = pointInWindowSpace.x - (windowOrigin.x); pointInScreenSpace.y = pointInWindowSpace.y - (windowOrigin.y); Nonetheless, you should file a radar asking for -[NSWindow convertPoint{To,From}Screen:]. This is precisely the kind of tedious code that I find myself screwing up on a regular basis. Heck, I might've even screwed it up in this email. > NSRect cr = [keyWindow convertRectToScreen:r]; > > The last line throws one error and a warning: > > No viable conversion from 'id' to 'NSRect' (aka '_NSrect') > instance method '-convertRectToScreen' not found (return type defaults to > 'id') > > But -convertRectToScreen ins in the NSWindow reference. > > So what am I missing? Are you not building with the 10.7 SDK? Or is your Maximum Deployment Version set to 10.6 or earlier? --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
