I set up subclass of NSToobarItem in order to validate my tool bar items which contain buttons. In the validation method I check if the button is enabled, and use that to enable/disable the toobar item. The button is enabled/disabled through a binding. Initially the toolbar item is disabled. The text label is grey. But later, the button is enabled, the validate method calls [self setEnabled:YES], but the text label remains greyed out. The button in the toolbar item is however active.


I notice that in this state, I can get the text to darken and to appear active by resizing my window causing the neighboring toolbar item to 'bump' into the sticking one. What am I doing wrong that requires the jostle? Is there a way to programatically jostle the sticky item? (just kidding)



From the NSView Docs (a base class of NSButton)
Whenever the data or state used for drawing a view object changes, the view should be sent a setNeedsDisplay:
