I know NSRect is a struct; however, NSPoint is an object, so I should be using the message format, right? I must be missing some subtle piece

Hold down the command key while you double-click on NSPoint in one of your source files in xCode. That will bring up the declaration of NSPoint and immediately tell you where your mistake is.

"should be using the message format" also sounds fishy to me. You should re-read the chapters on objects in the ObjC book to make sure you understand the difference. This phrasing almost sounds as if you expected to be able to call any function using message syntax or any message using function syntax. Both aren't true (admitted, there are IMPs, but that's beside the point).

Oh, if you didn't know about Command-Double-Click, the following list of tips and tricks like that will probably interest you: <http://www.zathras.de/angelweb/x2004-12-05b.htm> -- Cheers, M.
