Re: kAXResizedNotification and kAXMovedNotification working?

Both, actually. I can't get these notifications when observing Finder (which still appears to link Carbon but not Cocoa), Xcode (which links specific parts of Cocoa as well as Carbon), iChat (which links the whole Cocoa framework + Carbon), or the Sketch example (to pick something that links Cocoa but not Carbon).

I'm using an application event handler to get a kAXApplicationActivatedNotification so that I can always watch the front application, so I can't presuppose which frameworks my target will be linking.

I'll keep hacking away to make sure it isn't some stupid bug on my part, but it would be reassuring to hear that there is actually some circumstance under which I could receive these notifications, if nothing else. ;-)

Let me know if I can provide more info.

Hi guys,

Has anyone successfully used the following notifications?

axErr = AXObserverAddNotification(_observer, focusedElement, kAXResizedNotification, self);
axErr = AXObserverAddNotification(_observer, focusedElement, kAXMovedNotification, self);


I have registered for kAXWindowMovedNotification and kAXWindowResizedNotification successfully, but focusedElement may in this case be contained in a split view and could therefore be resized and/or moved without moving the window. I've checked that axErr == kAXErrorSuccess, that the _observer and focusedElement look reasonable, and that _observer is actually registered with focusedElement's application and not some other application.

What kind of app are you trying to observe, Carbon or Cocoa? I honestly don't know offhand what the behavior of either framework is, but we'll need to know which framework before we can research an answer.
