I hope someone can help. I have a subclass of NSCombobox that displays a custom resizable popup list instead of the standard fixed size list. The subclass list populates fine when using an internal list defined in a nib for the custom combo box class by simply making the subclass box the data source of my table I can do this:

- (int)numberOfRowsInTableView:(NSTableView *)aTableView
{
        return [self numberOfItems];
}

- (id)tableView:(NSTableView *)aTableView objectValueForTableColumn: (NSTableColumn *)aTableColumn row:(int)rowIndex
{
return [self itemObjectValueAtIndex:rowIndex];
}



However, when bindings are attached to the subclass the list does not populate. The question is how can I take advantage of NSCombobox'es default binding and obtain the data from that binding to populate the custom popup list ? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I don't think that is possible to do. When originally doing a custom radio group (NSMatrix containing subclasses of NSActionCell), I couldn't use the selectedTag or selectedIndex bindings to get both model-initiated and view-initiated changes handled. I remedied the problem by subclassing NSMatrix (IIRadioGroup) and adding my own custom binding (selectedRadioTag).


Thus, look into adding a custom binding to your NSCombobox subclass.
