Hey folks.
I've been playing with NSTableView and NSOutlineView, and I
have a critical problem. No matter what I do, they look..
well.. unprofessional. Not just the font, but in general the
whole thing looks rather blocky. So I had the following
questions:
When I set a table cell for rows to draw in a color, there is a
big white line between the cells. This looks rather clunky, how
do I remove it? Unchecking draws grid in IB doesn't seem to do
it.
[myTableView setIntercellSpacing:NSMakeSize(0,0)];
Is there a defined way to have text and images in a cell? The
default, NSTextFieldCell doesn't seem to do what I want.
You have to create your own or use a an NSImageCell as the
preceding column
Finally, how can I draw my own column separators, and I think
I've seen this on the list before, but I guess I'll ask
anyways, how can I set up context-menus for the outline view as
a whole?
I haven't done this myself, but I think it's a simple as making
your own Menu tree and setting on your tableView (setMenu: I
believe).
As far as the column separator -- I'm not sure.
Sorry to waste time with such armaturish questions. Thanks.
Gotta start somewhere :)
Hope this helps!
