While performing a drag and drop in NSOutlineView at the point where I accept the drop I want to throw up an NSPopover at the drop point with some options and an accept or decline button to ultimately accept or refuse the drop. The popover needs to run modal so as to block on the return to accept. So this in short is what I'm doing:
- (BOOL)outlineView:(NSOutlineView *)outlineView acceptDrop:(id <NSDraggingInfo>)info item:(id)item childIndex:(NSInteger)index { [popover showRelativeToRect:rect ofView:outlineView preferredEdge:preferredEdge]; NSWindow *window = popover.contentViewController.view.window; NSInteger ret = [NSApp runModalForWindow:window]; return (ret == 1); } This works but the problem is the drag image ends up on top of the popover obscuring some of the controls. I have tried to remove the drag image by running [info enumerateDraggingItemsWithOptions:0 forView:outlineView classes:[NSArray arrayWithObject:[NSURL class]] searchOptions:nil usingBlock:^(NSDraggingItem *draggingItem, NSInteger idx, BOOL *stop) { // tried this [draggingItem setDraggingFrame:NSZeroRect contents:nil]; // and this draggingItem.imageComponentsProvider = nil; // but neither work }]; just before showing the popover but this has no effect. I also tried subclassing NSOutlineView and doing - (BOOL)performDragOperation:(id <NSDraggingInfo>)sender { [sender enumerateDraggingItemsWithOptions:0 forView:self classes:[NSArray arrayWithObject:[NSURL class]] searchOptions:nil usingBlock:^(NSDraggingItem *draggingItem, NSInteger idx, BOOL *stop) { draggingItem.imageComponentsProvider = nil; }]; return [super performDragOperation:sender];; } but no joy here either. Any help on doing this would be greatly appreciated I'm using the newer multi pasteboard item api - (id <NSPasteboardWriting>)outlineView:(NSOutlineView *)outlineView pasteboardWriterForItem:(id)item Thanks Jonathan _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
