I have a static text item created in a Nib with IB and I set its
command ID. When the user clicks on the static text item my event
procedure does not get called. Essentially I am using an icon with
static text to the right as a simulated control and I want the icon
to toggle when the user clicks on the text. It works fine if the
user clicks on the icon.
Assuming that your event handler is registered for a
kEventControlClick or kEventControlHit event, the problem is that
these events are only sent for controls that return a non-zero
partcode from kEventControlHitTest. The static text control ignores
clicks, so it returns zero. You can get hits on the control by
installing a kEventControlHitTest handler and setting the ControlPart
parameter value to a non-zero value and then returning noErr. That
will cause your Click or Hit handler to be called when the user
clicks and releases the mouse.
