Here is some code to programmatically create a table view with a scroll bar, and multiple columns. // create a table view and a scroll view NSScrollView * tableContainer = [[NSScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(10, 10, 380, 200)]; NSTableView * tableView = [[NSTableView alloc] initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0, 0, 364, 200)]; // create columns for our table NSTableColumn * column1 … Read more
Joshua, make sure to use the developers documentation to determine whether or not it’s a delegate method. If it were a delegate method, it would be mentioned in the docs for NSTableViewDelegate. What you’re looking for is very straight forward. Objective-C NSIndexSet *indexSet = [NSIndexSet indexSetWithIndex:1]; [tableview selectRowIndexes:indexSet byExtendingSelection:NO]; Swift 2 let indexSet = NSIndexSet(index: … Read more
Just change the Content Mode to Cell Based for the table view in IB. IB will display Text Cell as the cell placeholders, which are populated at runtime by whatever you return from tableView:objectValueForTableColumn:row:
This is just an IB problem that happens all the time (I’m not sure why). To solve this, simply just resize the table view to the size smaller than the 2nd column, then drag it back to the size you want and the 2nd column will disappear.
Since you’re using the view based NSTableView, you can subclass NSTableRowView, feed it to the table delegate method – (NSTableRowView *)tableView:(NSTableView *)tableView rowViewForRow:(NSInteger)row;, then customize your selection in the row view class. Here’s an example: – (void)drawSelectionInRect:(NSRect)dirtyRect { if (self.selectionHighlightStyle != NSTableViewSelectionHighlightStyleNone) { NSRect selectionRect = NSInsetRect(self.bounds, 2.5, 2.5); [[NSColor colorWithCalibratedWhite:.65 alpha:1.0] setStroke]; [[NSColor colorWithCalibratedWhite:.82 … Read more
In Interface Builder, select the table view, open the attributes inspector (alt-command-4), and uncheck the “Headers” checkbox in the “Columns” section.
Take a look at the -setDoubleAction: method on NSTableView; you can set that to a method that will be called just like the normal target-action system but on a double-click. In that action method, -clickedRow will be useful.
