Re: NSTextView + other NSView in NSScrollView?
Alright, I'm able to get a view that can resize to a NSTextView subview's size, and it works as the document view of a scroll view, but I'm still not sure how to make it work with another view above it.

I suspect Mail just uses a single NSTextView and just arranges the header text using custom text attributes, etc. Maybe someone at Apple reading this would know for sure. cheers, Graham ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Maybe it would help if you first wrap your two views in an enclosing view, get that working (get the resizing and auto-growing right), and put that (single) view into an NSScrollView. That seems to be Mail.app's approach. I made a copy of Mail.app and looked at the nib file MessageViewerContents.nib. --Andy ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

I guessed that too, but a look at the nib file in Mail.app indicates otherwise. I wonder if it *used* to be a single NSTextView -- I seem to remember Command-A used to select the message *and* headers, though it doesn't now. --Andy ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

NSTextView + other NSView in NSScrollView?
I'm trying to create a Mail-style scroll view, with a view for information (like the view for message headers) above a text view for the content. I created two NSViews in Interface Builder, changed the class of the bottom one to NSTextView, selected both, and clicked Layout Embed Objects In Scroll View. This all works (it puts the views inside a scroll view), but the NSTextView doesn't play well with the scroll view when it increases in size, and when the scroll view changes size. When the text view increases in size, instead of just getting longer by a line, it gets longer and moves down, and the scroll view doesn't enable the scrollbar. If I shrink the scroll view by means of resizing the window (and I do have the autosizing set properly), the text view moves up erratically, and doesn't move back down when I increase the window size again. Everything works just fine when I create an NSTextView and embed it in a scroll view without another view alongside... because the NSTextView itself becomes the scroll view's document view. So... what's the right way to go about doing this? Should I even try to be putting 2 views in a scroll view for the effect I'm aiming for?

Re: NSTextView + other NSView in NSScrollView?
Putting two views inside a scroll view seems like a weird way to go about this. What I would do is create a custom NSView subclass that draws information at the top and has an NSTextView as a subview drawn underneath.
