I have an NSView subclass that's used to draw contents of a menu item. When I
get a mouseUp in my view, I need to flash the hilite (I'm guessing just draw it
a couple times with a short delay between draws), dismiss the menu and perform
the action associated with the item. These seem like the right methods to use,
but the menu is not closing before the action executes. What's a better way to
do this? The MenuItemView sample app also has this problem when you click the
Button.
- (void)mouseUp:(NSEvent*)event
{
UNUSED_VAR(event);
NSMenuItem* item = [self enclosingMenuItem];
NSMenu* menu = [item menu];
// On mouseUp, we want to dismiss the menu being tracked:
[menu cancelTracking];
// Then send the action to the target:
SEL act = [item action];
id targ = [item target];
if(act != nil && targ != nil)
// [NSApp sendAction:act to:targ from:item];
// Temporarily sending the About menu item so it'll fire the About box:
[NSApp sendAction:act to:targ from:[menu itemAtIndex:0]];
// Copied from MenuItemView sample project. I don't think this is necessary:
// [self setNeedsDisplay:YES];
}
