Thanks again,

A problem is that the value of com.apple.mouse.doubleClickThreshold might not be present, which will default cachedDblClickThreshold to 0.1, which results in a zero that is briefly visible. This actually happened on my machine. I had to go into the mouse preferences and click the click speed slider to set it's value in the global prefs. The reason that my global prefs didn;t have a doubleClickThreshold could be that I am using a Kensington mouse which adds it own prefs panel.

Yes, I took 0.1 but I don't know the default for this (value if you never changed that threshold).


So I was thinking, one thing I learned from programming in Cocoa/ObjC (and other frameworks) is that if you are struggling with the code, probably the approach is wrong. Maybe I shouldn't test for doubleClickThreshold within textViewDidChangeSelection? Is there a possible other way to hook into the click event that will make it easier to do this - maybe in the NSTextView itself?


This approach is right (but there might be a better solution to get double click threshold). The only problem that you have is that you want to discard the one-click event if there is a double-click event (not exactly... you want to discard the selection change notification for one-click event if there is a double-click). Since the framework can't tell at first-click time that there will be a second (or a third...) click, you have to use that sort of code.
