It looks like I did have an early version. I downloaded the one from your
website, rebuilt my pref pane and included a call to
setReadyForHotKeyEvent, and now it works great.
Thanks a lot for making a very cool and very useful NDHotKeyControl class!

You probable have, try downloading it again from my site, you also might
want to download my Popup Dock application

and look at how the views are set up for the IB file within the
preference pane, it use the NDHotKeyControl in a cooler way than the
example that comes with NDHotKeyEvent, I will have to update the example
app to show this when I get a chance.

It doesn't look like NDHotKeyControl implements a
setReadyForHotKeyEvent: method. Do I perhaps have an older version of
the NDHotKeyControl source code? Surely there is something I'm missing
here. I figure I can take your word for it on this, since you wrote
the class and all. ;-)

I use those classes myself in a preference pane (Popup Dock) and they
work fine. You need to have a NDHotKeyControl to capture the event,
you can create an input field in IB and change its class to
NDHotKeyControl. You then need to tell the NDHotKeyControl to wait for
a HotKey combination event by calling setReadyForHotKeyEvent:, you can
alternativly set up a button to send a readyForHotKeyEventChanged:
action.

Take a look at Nathan Day's "NDHotKeyEvent" utility code:

I tried to use this in my preference pane, but I can't get the
control to receive hot key events. There could be something I'm
doing wrong when setting up or working with the NDHotKeyControl
class, but is there any reason it wouldn't be able to receive events
in a preference pane?
