I'm at a loss trying to display text in an NSDrawer.
I've got to the point where I can create an NSDrawer attached to a window
with a button that toggles the drawer open and closed. I've even modified
the content view to contain an NSTextView object and the blank textView
shows up fine. I just want the drawer to display logging information.
My controller object contains the following outlet:
IBOutlet NSTextView *logWindow;
I connect the outlet of my controller object directly to the NSTextView
using Interface builder.
Elsewhere in my controller code, in response to a menu selection, I make the
following call with no errors:
[logWindow insertText:@"Add Entry Called"];
The result is that I get nothing in the TextView of my drawer.
Then, just as another datapoint, I added another NSTextView directly to my
main window and called it logWindow2. I added the outlet to my controller,
wired it up in interface builder and made a call just after the original
logWindow call and it works as expected.
Am I not allowed to directly access a control on the NSDrawer instance? Do I
have to go "through" the drawer object somehow (if so why didn't I get some
kind of error?)?
Help, I've searched online and I now own many books on Cocoa development but
I still can't find a clue to my dilemma.
