Re: NSTextField with an date formatting

2009-02-01 Thread minapre999



I put together a tiny little project & it actually behaves perfectly  
as it is supposed to!  As far as I can tell it is identical to my  
current project exept  it just has the one entity with one attributes  
and one window with a table view of dates and a couple of text  
fields.  The text fields and the table view are hooked up to the MOC  
via binding in an identical manner to my main project, so I am stumped  
on this one.  Meanwhile I have a workaround for the immediate problem  
(two text fields, one on top of the other, one hidden, one not, when  
the user sets the date in the text field then it becomes hidden and  
the other one becomes visible).

Can you reduce the problem to a little tiny project and show it? m.
