I've just recently moved into Cocoa after working in java Swing for a
while,
and it's a bit of an adjustment, but I really like this ease of laying
out
interface components with Interface Builder. I've been through a few
cocoa/objective-c books but I'm a little fuzzy on how best to access
user
interface objects programatically.
For example, in one interface I have a large NSTextView that will act
something like a scrolling console with messages added to the bottom
from
time to time. I've had no issue setting up an IBOutlet object in my
controller class and correctly displaying the strings, but I need to
access
the NSScrollView (more specifically the NSClipView) of the NSTextView
so
that I can tell it to scroll down when new lines are added to the
console.
The documentation says NSTextView should be accessed programmatically
through its textStorage method.
You can get the scroll view by using the NSView enclosingScrollView
method.
You can scroll to a range (as Alun said) using NSTextView
scrollRangeToVisible: method.
Cheers, Glen Low
