You should download AppKiDo by Andy Lee. It's quite handy for
browsing the documentation:
http://homepage.mac.com/aglee/downloads/appkido.html
Pay attention to which version of the documentation you have
versus the version of AppKiDo you're using. An older version of
AppKiDo, for example, may not know how to properly display newer
documentation if its formatting/structure has changed.

Thanks everyone, I had stumbled across the setIntValue in one of
the Apple
Cocoa pdf's, and it was not listed in the Dev Docs for NSTextField
but I
did find it in the NSCell API.
Thanks again,
tom

OK, so I have created a simple little app which has a button which
set the contents of a NSTextField to a integer, and this works
fine. I
even figured out how to change the color. I just can't seem to
figure out
how to set text in the TextField.
Here is my code I was trying.
Thanks,
tom
- (IBAction)setTextFieldTo:(id)sender
{
// This works
//[textField setIntValue:2];
NSString *myText;
myText = @"Hello World";
[textField setString: myText];
[textField setToolTip: @"Hello Tool Tip!"];
[textField setTextColor: [NSColor greenColor]];
}
As I.S. just pointed out, use setStringValue:
One thing I wanted to point out though is that if you had an
NSTextView instead of NSTextField, then you would be able to use
setString: (NSTextView inherits from NSText which provides a
setString:). However, NSTextField does not inherit from NSText.
Typically, you can get nice compiler warnings about this (e.g.
'textField may not respond to setString:') My guess is that you
declared textField as an id (which is a perfectly valid thing to do),
instead of the more specific type of NSTextField*.
