Re: becomeFirstResponder and resignFirstResponder

The reason they both happen immediately is that an NSTextField actually uses and NSTextView for editing. So, as soon as it is made first responder, it starts editing and hands over first responder status to the NSTextView editor. While a control is editing, the -currentEditor method will return a non-nil value. You might be able to catch when editing starts by overriding NSTextFieldCell's -editWithFrame:... and selectWithFrame:... methods. And you can probably find out when it ends by overriding NSTextField's -textDidEndEditing:.

Subject: becomeFirstResponder and resignFirstResponder

I have subclassed NSTextField and overridden becomeFirstResponder and resignFirstResponder methods. Everytime I click in my custom NSTextField, both the methods get called, instead of just becomeFirstResponder. Is there a reason for this?

I want to show a border around the NSTextField while the user is in there, and remove the border when the user has left the NSTextField, but can't seem to because both methods get called at the same time.
