TextSizingExample

Hi,

Based on the two column code in the TextSizingExample in
/Developer/Examples/AppKit/, I created an view with two columns. How do I
make sure that text only appears in the right column? If I set some text
for the right view at startup using setString, the text indeed appears only
in the right column, but if I select text, the selection outline extends to
both columns.

If I don't set a string at startup, the insertion point is in the left
column, and typing continues into the left column.

Here's a snippet (sorry for the long lines):

- (id)initWithFrame:(NSRect)frameRect textContainer:(NSTextContainer
*)container
{
NSRect frame;
NSTextContainer *textContainer;
NSTextView *textView;

if ( self = [super initWithFrame:frameRect textContainer:container] )
{
frame = [self bounds];

// Create and configure first NSTextContainer
textContainer = [[NSTextContainer allocWithZone:[self zone]]
initWithContainerSize:NSMakeSize(40.0,
frame.size.height)];

[[self layoutManager] addTextContainer:textContainer];
[textContainer release];

// Create and configure first NSTextView
textView = [[NSTextView allocWithZone:[self zone]]
initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(frame.origin.x, frame.origin.y,
40.0, frame.size.height) textContainer:textContainer];

[textView release];

// Create and configure second NSTextContainer
textContainer = [[NSTextContainer allocWithZone:[self zone]]

initWithContainerSize:NSMakeSize(frame.size.width - 40.0 - 8.0,
frame.size.height)];

[[self layoutManager] addTextContainer:textContainer];
[textContainer release];

// Create and configure second NSTextView
textView = [[NSTextView allocWithZone:[self zone]]
initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(frame.origin.x +
40.0 + 8.0, frame.origin.y,
frame.size.width - 40.0 - 8.0,
frame.size.height) textContainer:textContainer];

[textView setAllowsUndo:YES];
[textView setRichText:NO];
[textView setFont:[NSFont fontWithName: @"Courier" size:14]];
[textView setString: @"some init string"];
[textView release];
}


thanks,

- Koen.
