I've got a little problem and I'm hoping someone here can help me out. I've used XCode pretty regularly for a while now and have made plenty of use of the Debugger datatips. All of the sudden today on a new project that I am working on, they are not there. The setting is toggled on under the Run->Debugger Display->Datatips menu, but they...

However, if I make the window smaller than the image, the scrollbars appear as they should, but the BOTTOM of the image is locked to the bottom of the window, instead of the top of the image being locked to the top of the window. In other words, I w...

Last year I had to convert and old Mac font from around OS 9 for someone to use on a PC. I discovered that back then the font data was stored in the extended attribute com.apple.ResourceFork. The actual file size will show up as 0 in terminal. I was able to get around this by simply printing out the value of that extended attribute using...

Hi, I'm from a Windows programming background when writing tools, but have been programming using Carbon and Cocoa for the past year. I have introduced myself to Mac by, I admit it, hiding from UI programming. I've been basically wapping my OpenGL code in a view, then staying in my comfort zone using my platform agnostic OpenGL C++ co...

How can I get in Mac OS X "global" mouse position - I mean how can I in cocoa/cf/whatever find out cursor position even if it's outside the window, and even if my window is inactive? I know it's somehow possible (even without admin permissions), because I've seen something like that in Java - but I want to write it in ObjC Sorry for my...

Manually I press Command+R wait for the application to read some data form a physical device for 1 minute, then press command+R again to take another reading (at this point it asks me if I want to save the data, so I press tab, tab and th...
