Re: systemStatusBar notification for mouse click



Never mind, I found it could be done by creating a custom view and setting it ([statusItem setView: myView])

Hello,

Is there a way to be notified when someone clicks on my systemStatusBar Item OR when the pop up menu becomes visible?

This is how the system status bar is created:

   {
       ...
       statusBar = [[NSStatusBar systemStatusBar] retain];
       statusItem = [[statusBar statusItemWithLength:50] retain]

       [statusItem setLength: NSVariableStatusItemLength];
       [statusItem setHighlightMode:YES];
             [statusItem setMenu:theDockMenu];
       [statusItem setImage: img ];
       [statusItem setEnabled:YES];

       [statusItem setLength:NSVariableStatusItemLength];

I tried calling:

       [statusItem setTarget:self];
       [statusItem setAction:@selector(onStatusMenu:)];
   }

   - (void)onStatusMenu:(id)none
   {
       NSLog(@"onStatusMenu");
   }

However the action is never called and after investigating online it looks like setTarget/setAction dont work for image status items.

Thank you,
