nstableview

I am developing a MAC application and included the tableView. Want to change the Colour of selected row to yellow. Set this on your table view: [yourtableview setSelectionHighlightStyle:NSTableViewSelectionHighlightStyleNone]; And implement the following delegate method of NSTableView as: - (void)tableView:(NSTableView *)aTableView willDisplayCell:(id)aCell forTableColumn:(NSTableColumn *)aTableColumn row:(NSInteger)rowIndex { if ([[aTableView selectedRowIndexes] containsIndex:rowIndex]) { [aCell setBackgroundColor: [NSColor yellowColor]]; } else { [aCell setBackgroundColor: [NSColor

I have a an NSTableView when ever I click on a specific header column the data in the table get reversed or sort upside down. I have checked NSTableView as well as NSTableColumn but couldn't find any method that disables this. I would be obliged if anyone can help in disabling this sorting on clicking on the header of a particular column. Sorting of the NSTableView is done by its sortDescriptors , see here . An NSTableColumn uses its sortDescriptorPrototype (see here ) to generate the sort descriptor of the NSTableView , depending on how many times you clicked the column header, etc. If you

I have an NSTableView showing the contents of a directory. I watch for FSEvents, and each time I get an event I reload my table view. Unfortunately, the current selection then disappears. Is there a way to avoid that? OzBandit It depends on how you populate your NSTableView. If you have the table view bound to an NSArrayController, which in turn contain the items that your table view is displaying, then the NSArrayController has an option to preserve the selection. You can select it (or not) from within Interface Builder as a property on the NSArrayController. Or you can use the

I have a view based nstableview. I want to color entire row based on some condtion for which I have used code below - (NSTableRowView *)tableView:(NSTableView *)tableView rowViewForRow:(NSInteger)row { NSTableRowView *view = [[NSTableRowView alloc] initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(1, 1, 100, 50)]; [view setBackgroundColor:[NSColor redColor]]; return view;; } The delegate method is called, but table doesn't seem to be using NSTableRowView returned by delegate method. Main aim here is coloring entire row based on some condition. Whats wrong in above implementation? For anyone else who hits this and

I have a dynamic NSTableView which can add a number of columns depending on the data provided. For each column I have set the header cell to be a NSPopUpButtonCell. (Side-note: I've had to use a custom subclass class for NSTableHeaderView otherwise the menu doesn't pop-up). All works well, apart from a duplicate or extra header button cell on the top right. It mirrors perfectly the previous column selection as shown in screenshots. My question is how do I stop the NSTableView from recycling the previous popup header cell? (By the way I have tried the setCornerView method but that only effects

I have an NSTableView which is bound to an NSArrayController. I would like to have one of the table columns showing the index of the table row. This is easy enough to do when you implement NSTableDataSource yourself but I can't figure it out with a bound table view. I guess I'm looking here for something like the @count key path which gives me the count of arrangedObjects (that is @index) but this is obviously missing. Two clarifications: The index that is shown in each row is the index of that row and not related at all to the way the data is actually arranged in the model or array controller
