I have an NSTableView, and I have the ability for the user to show or hide columns dynamically (with a mail-style header context menu). My issue is that if the table view is currently wider than it's scroll view (i.e. it's displaying a horizontal scroll bar) when a column is hidden or shown it resizes every single visible column such th...

When in editing mode and a user clicks "delete" I call - (void)removeObject:(MyClass *)myObject how can i determine which array to send the message [myArray removeObject:myObject]? N...
Is there any way to achieve multiple selection behavior in an NSTableView without requiring the user to hold down the command button while clicking? This was easy to do in a Carbon list box, by ORing in the cmdKey modifier flag, during mouse down processing, on the call to the HandleControlClick() function. I am new to Cocoa, and it is...

Hi, I want to build a Cocoa App with a list of entries very similar to the ToDo list of Things.app (see the screencast). The question is whether I should use a TableView, a CollectionView or a WebView.

Hi, I have a NSTableView as a very central part of my Application and want it to integrate more with the rest of it. It has only one column (it's a list) and I draw all Cells (normal NSTextFieldCells) myself. The first problem is the highlighting. I draw the highlight myself and want to get rid of the blue background. I now fill the who...
I don't know how it happened, but all of a sudden in my table view I can't make an empty selection anymore. Like a table view row always has to be selected, and it can't be deselected by clicking somewhere else in the table view. I can select a different row, but I can't make an empty selection. In the Interface Builder attributes for t...

Hello, I currently have an NSTableView inside an NSScrollView and this gets it's contents from a datasource. However, when the number of contents is larger than the view can hold, using the vertical scroll bar does not affect the contents of the table. Dragging the scroll bar doesn't work Clicking the Up/Down buttons doesn't work Usi...
In my application, I use a NSTableView in which I allow inline editing. This inline editing is "buffered", which means that the user has to tab through all fields or press return to "commit" the edit. Pressing escape cancels the edit and reverts values. Up until now, I only needed text fields for inline editing, and I am successfully ab...

In my AppDelegate.h file I declare an NSArray and set it as a property: @interface AppDelegate : NSObject { NSArray *lines; } @property(readwrite, retain) NSArray *lines; @end And then in the AppDelegate...
