Re: mouseMoved problems

Direct from the first paragraph of Apple's documentation on handling mouse events in views:

NSViews automatically receive mouse-clicked and mouse-dragged events, but because mouse-moved events occur so often and can bog down the event queue, an NSView must explicitly request its NSWindow to watch for them using NSWindow's setAcceptsMouseMovedEvents: method.

Kritter out

Hi,

I have a custom view derived from NSView and I am trying to get
mouseMoved events but I don't get any. I think I have set everything up
properly. The following methods are defined in my custom view and when I
click the mouse it prints out "YES" in the log window. I get the
mouseDragged events just fine. But I never get a mouseMoved event.

Is someone out there successfully using mouseMoved events? Or are there
any bugs with it anyone knows about? Does it look like I'm doing
something obviously wrong?

I'm using 10.1.3 (5Q45) with Dec 2001 tools.

Thanks for any help,
Chris

- (void)mouseDown:(NSEvent *)theEvent
{
NSLog( [[self window] acceptsMouseMovedEvents] ? @"YES" : @"NO" );
}

- (void)mouseDragged:(NSEvent *)theEvent
{
NSLog( @"mouseDragged" );
}

- (void)mouseMoved:(NSEvent *)theEvent
{
NSLog( @"mouseMoved" );
}
