Is something like this a decent Cocoa approach:
// create the window
myWindow = [[NSWindow alloc] initWithContentRect: ... ];
// insert the existing matrix as it's content view
[myWindow setContentView:myMatrix];
// alter the position of the matrix
NSPoint newPoint = ...
[myMatrix setFrameOrigin:newPoint];
[myWindow display];
No.
You want
// create the window
myWindow = [[NSWindow alloc] initWithContentRect: ... ];
// insert the existing matrix as it's content view
//************* See here!
[[myWindow contentView] addSubview:myMatrix];
// alter the position of the matrix
NSPoint newPoint = ...
[myMatrix setFrameOrigin:newPoint];
[myWindow display];
A window's content view always fills the whole content area.
Therefore, "moving it around" makes no sense.
Gotcha! Thats the nuance I wasnt picking up on, that the NSWindow has
its default content view, and I just need to add my subview to _it_.
Most excellent!
Thx!
