I've been digging through the archive and haven't found any solution to this
problem nor have I found it elsewhere online. I am yet another person
attempting to create an AddressBook style editor or some semblance of that
behavior of a smooth layout with autoresizing textfields. So here is my
problem ... I have a custom NSTextAttachmentCell that I am using to forward
on events to NSButtons, NSTextFields, etc. I can get the widgets to display
in the NSTextView fine BUT I can't for the live of me get it to make the
widgets usable. What I mean by this is that I can't click in the TextField
and get focus and I can't click the button. Here is how I am setting them
up:



Well, a text field cell isn't a text field. One option is to take the mouse events and do what the text field would do with them if it were there, i.e. get a field editor and install it--for a sample of this sort of thing, see Sketch. If handling the mouse events from the attachment cell isn't sufficient, then you can create an actual text field and add it as a subclass to your text view at the appropriate place.
