I am trying to put a text input field into the menubar for a project
I'm working on for myself. I've tried tinkering around with using the
setView method of NSStatusItem but I can't seem to make it work. I
know some people will say putting a text input field there is a really
bad idea, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to do it for my
project. :-)
Is setView barking up the wrong tree? If so does anyone know the
proper way I could do this?
iSeek from Ambrosia does the very thing I'm trying to do but I can't
figure out how they do it. Some have suggested they are just drawing a
bordlerless window on top of the menubar vs. embedding it. Before
iSeek was bought by Ambrosia it was just a floating borderless window
so that might lead credence to
that argument.
Thank you,
Phillip Moore
