I recently got an example of some code from a friend but he told me one line needs to be changed to make it work for me. Here's the code:
- (void)tableView:(NSTableView *)aTableView willDisplayCell:(id)aCell forTableColumn:
(NSTableColumn *)aTableColumn row:(int)rowIndex {
if ([aCell respondsToSelector:@selector(setTextColor:)]) {
if ([self visibilityForFile:[fileList objectAtIndex:rowIndex]] == NO)
[aCell setTextColor:[NSColor lightGrayColor]];
else [aCell setTextColor:[NSColor blackColor]];
}
}
I need to replace this line:
[self visibilityForFile:[fileList objectAtIndex:rowIndex]] == NO
With some different code, what I am actually trying to do is, as I've got a table every row in the table has a checkbox, when a checkbox in a row is checked the text color of that row will change. I think the code needs to check to see if the checkbox in the row is checked, I just need the code for that. Thanks.
