I'm working on a utilities app that basically consists of an NSToolbar
and a form. The user enters some data in the form, and a new toolbar
item is created and added to the toolbar. This is all well and good,
and the new item is available in the "Customize..." panel and
everything. What I'm up against is I need some way to allow the user to
edit an item, and delete an item.
I first thought that it would be possible to assign a menu to the
toolbar item (containing "Edit this item"/"Delete Item"), but in fact
it appears that neither NSToolbar nor NSToolbarItem are Views,
therefore they have no menu. (Also, the toolbar's menu is shown no
matter where you click in the toolbar.) So I'm a bit at a loss as to
how to allow the user to select an item to edit or delete.
I know that I'm perhaps stretching NSToolbar beyond its intended usage,
but isn't that the whole idea? ;)
Any suggestions (other than those along the lines of "write your own
view") would be appreciated.
