Re: Rotating a QTMovie doesn't work the way it used to

I don't know anything about the old QuickTime APIs. But I would suggest the new way to do this is use Core Animation. Thanks for the suggestion! I wasn't too keen on using layers for this, and fortunately, it turned out that I can still rotate single QuickTime tracks successfully. And I

Rotating a QTMovie doesn't work the way it used to

I have global HotKey registered using Carbon, and this HotKey invokes a method in which I'm replacing the contents of the general Pasteboard. [...] I'm wondering if there is a way to programmatically call 'Paste', or if there are any facilities in Cocoa for simulating key presses?

Re: NSTask failing

I've tried making the arguments only 1 entry in the array, and the same thing; I've both quoting and not quoting the arguments, and the same thing; I've tried using a dash with the options and without, and the same thing--always status=2 (fatal error). You should unquote those paths,

Re: Carbon Menu in Cocoa app

I have tried the MenuRef _NSGetCarbonMenu(NSMenu* aMenu); but my menuRef always gets 0x0. Is this private API still available ? Did you remember to make the NSMenu actually create its underlying Carbon menu before trying to get it via _NSGetCarbonMenu()? You can do so by temporarily

Prevent application activation after dragging items to the Dock icon?

Cocoa applications tend to come to the foreground automatically whenever I drag files to their Dock icon. Sometimes, however, I'd prefer my application to stay in the background and just start working on the file, while giving feedback through the Dock icon. But this isn't supposed to be a
