Using heightOfRowByItem is NSOutlineView

With thanks due to I.Savant and Scott Ribe, I've got some results in dynamically modifying line heights in an NSOutline.

I implemented a delegate for the NSOutlineView, with this:

- (float)outlineView:(NSOutlineView *)outlineView heightOfRowByItem: (id)item {

NSArray * cols = [outlineView tableColumns];
NSEnumerator * en = [cols objectEnumerator];
id col;
id dcell;
NSSize cellsize;
NSRect bounds;
float highest = 0.0;
while(col = [en nextObject]){
dcell = [col dataCellForRow:[outlineView rowForItem:item]];
cellsize = [dcell cellSize]; // will use this later
cellsize.height = 100000000.0;
cellsize.width = 300.00;
bounds.origin = NSZeroPoint;
bounds.size = cellsize;
[dcell setWraps: YES];
cellsize = [dcell cellSizeForBounds:bounds];
if (cellsize.height > highest) {
highest = cellsize.height;
}
NSLog(@"heights: %f %f datacell: %@", bounds.size.height, cellsize.height, [dcell objectValue]);
}

return highest;
}



All fine, as far as it goes. But there are drawing errors, and my conclusion is that I need to invoke this more frequently.


My question: when is - (float)outlineView:(NSOutlineView *) outlineView heightOfRowByItem:(id)item invoked, and should I be setting up other delegate methods to call it more frequently? Should I set up notifications to trap events that occur when editing, collapsing or resizing? In short, how much does Cocoa handle, and how much am I responsible for? Anyone have any documentation on this?
