Hi folks,
It's me again, switching from PowerPlant to Cocoa.
A large number of my apps use dialogs for data input and editing, and
so I use a lot of text edit fields. With PP I can set maximum content
sizes, key filters for controlling allowable characters, and text
traits for font name, size, style, etc. Are there equivalents for these
in Cocoa?
Text traits in particular are very useful. I suppose I could live with
the system font for most dialogs, but for reports and things it's nice
to have something a bit more readable, especially for small sizes. It
looks like there is no way to store and amend font/size/style
information in IB, do I need to do this all in the code?
NSTextField objects generate an error message when the contents aren't
valid. How meaningful are these messages? Are they customisable?
That'll do for now. Many thanks in advance for any replies.
Rev. Andy
