It seems like what you are asking for might or should be supported. NSMatrix has some similarities to NSTableView. To get and set tool tips for cells in a matrix you use toolTipForCell: and setToolTip:forCell:. NSTableView does not have analogous tool tip messages. To find all classes that support setToolTip, option double-click on "setToolTip" from a source file in Xcode 1.1 to bring up the Help window with setToolTip as the search string.

As far as I know there is no built-in way to add tool tips for cells in a table. You might be able to support by sub-classing NSCell or NSTableView.

Hi,

I'm sure I've seen this somewhere, but I can't find it, so sorry if this is FAQ. What I want is the tooltips for an NSTableView to be specific to a cell, preferably controlled by the DataSource. I'm sure I've seen an example for it, so if somebody could point it out, that would be great.

Thanks in advance

Moray
