My apologies. I solved the problem myself. Inline editing does work
after I set editable flag for my button cell:
[m_buttonCell setEditable: YES];
I should have thought about this, so sorry for sending the original
message before trying all variants myself. I just assumed that being
an NSButtonCell instead of NSTextFieldCell is the reason, while
everything appeared to be much more trivial.
Best regards,
Sergey Shapovalov.

I have a custom view with an NSButtonCell in it, and I want to
support inline editing of its title when the user double clicks the
button cell (or chooses "Rename" from context menu). How can I do it?
I've found the following method of NSCell class:
- (void)editWithFrame:(NSRect)aRect inView:(NSView *)controlView
editor:(NSText *)textObj delegate:(id)anObject event:(NSEvent *)
theEvent
But the documentation says, "If the receiver isn’t a text-type
NSCell object, no editing is performed". That's what I see in my
case: after I say
NSTextView* editor = [[NSTextView alloc] initWithFrame: frame];
[m_buttonCell editWithFrame: frame inView: view editor: editor
delegate: self event: event];
a white edit field covers my button cell, but it is not editable.
Even if I type something, nothing changes on the screen, and after
I press Enter, in textDidEndEditing method of my delegate class, I
receive the original title, not what I typed. textDidBeginEditing
and textDidChange methods of my delegate class are never called.
My question is: is there a trick to make button cell's title
editable just like it can be done for text cells? If no, is there
anything less sophisticated than creating an NSTextField control
manually at run-time, positioning it over the button cell, and
removing it (from screen and from memory) when user input is done?
Thanks in advance for any hint,
Best regards,
Sergey Shapovalov.
