Just to clarify the scenario for posterity, you’re envisaging a situation where: — the user drags the right edge of the rightmost column either to the left or to the right — if left, the column gets smaller, so what the user actually sees is the rest of the table slide to the right? — if right, the column gets bigger, so the user sees the rest of the table slide left? — in neither case does the rightmost column edge itself move to where it’s dragged according to the mouse pointer? Although it’s logical and consistent, it doesn’t seem like a great user experience to me. (A mere opinion, I know, and so basically worthless.) I would have thought that the natural way to make the last column smaller would be to drag its left edge rightwards, and the natural way to make it bigger would be to make the window wider. Technically, I think there may be a way to do what you want with a NSTrackingArea. You could put one that’s 5pt x row-height over the right end of the header cell, and write your own tracking loop that resizes the column when a drag starts there. (You’d have to override the table view’s hitTest: method to make this work.) Or even put a little view up there. It’d be a fairly hacky solution, but it doesn’t sound non-doable. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
