NSWindowCollectionBehaviorMoveToActiveSpace has failed me for the last time

Hi, I'm trying to wrap my head around what I thought was a simple concept. I created a simple test app to test this. The source to it can be found here... http://www.conjurebunny.com/SpaceTest.zip All it does is... 1) Sets the window collection behavior to

Fast transition between two graphics

experimenting with using an overlay window with layer backed views, loading the images into the views, showing the window, and drawing the animation by then translating the two views at the same time. Is this the fastest way to do this? Thank you! -Chilton Webb

Re: Fast transition between two graphics

Hi Rob! Thank you for writing. I suppose the only way I'll know for sure is to test this with both. On Sep 29, 2009, at 7:24 PM, Rob Keniger wrote: You could do it this way, although normally for something like this I'd use Core Image. Make two CIImages and use an animated transition

Menu Weirdness (can't set command + 3 or command + 4)

Hi! I've checked the archives, but finding 'command' and '3' for anything relevant is somewhat impossible. I have a situation where if I try to set the key equivalent of a menu to 3 or 4, it just won't happen. any other number--it works just fine. I even made a movie...

Re: Menu Weirdness (can't set command + 3 or command + 4)

Hi guys! Mystery solved--it was something already assigned to that in a menu deep in a nested menu, inside the NIB. I had to comb through the designable.nib in a text editor, actually, to find it. So for future reference, not being able to set a menu can be caused by another menu item

Re: Menu Weirdness (can't set command + 3 or command + 4)

Hi Andy and Jens, Thank you for your replies. It's not something system-wide, as I CAN set it to things like command +shift+3. That works fine, oddly enough. And if I set it to all of any one number, obviously it lets me set it to those numbers, even though they're already in use farther

Overriding NSMenu from an NSTextView

Hi! I have a menu item that defines Command+Shift+Arrow (left and right) to do something. But I'd also like to support the 'normal' NSTextView behavior for Command+Shift+Arrow. How do I tell my app to ignore this particular menu command (and use the default NSTextView behavior) when

Hi, Here's why I'm asking. Right now I have an app that has a number of possibly different 'objects' in it. And I currently have a single inspector for all of them. When a new object is selected, the appropriate view for that object is added to the inspector window. This is a basically

Servicing Core Animations?

Hi, I have a core animation layer backed view that doesn't animate. It only happens to not animate during mousedown events. Is there something I have to do to make it work, or is it likely I'm short circuiting something, somewhere? It doesn't animate, or move at all. But when I release the

Spaces API issues

Hi, I realize there is no Spaces API, and that there likely won't be, per se. I have an app that my users want to behave differently based on the space it is currently accessed from. There is currently no way to find the current 'space', as I understand it, so that is out of the question (and
