Hi Elroy
In your case, you might be able to do something simpler than resort
to the full blown dragging mechanism. In your button subclass, you
could do something like this
- (void) mouseDragged:(NSEvent *) inEvent
{
NSRect selfFrame = [self frame];
[self setFrameOrigin: NSMakePoint(selfFrame.origin.x - [inEvent
deltaX], selfFrame.origin.y)];
[self setNeedsDisplay: YES];
}

Hello,
First off all a heads up: I'm new to custom view and drag & drop
programming, so sorry for any duh kind of questions :)
Also I'm doing this in rubycocoa so there are bound to be some errors
in my translation back to objective-c, but this code works and is only
meant as a context reference.
I have a custom view, which is a bar, with multiple buttons aligned
horizontally and I would like a user to be able to reorder them.
I was able to start a drag operation of a button by implementing this
in the button class:
- (void)mouseDown:(NSEvent *)theEvent
{
// other code...
draggingPasteBoard = [NSPasteboard pasteboardWithName:NSDragPboard];
[self lockFocus];
bitmap = [[NSBitmapImageRep alloc] initWithFocusedViewRect:[self
bounds]];
[self unlockFocus];
image = [[NSImage alloc] initWithSize:[self bounds].size];
[image addRepresentation:bitmap];
[self dragImage:image,
at:NSMakePoint(NSMinX([self frame]), NSMaxY([self
frame])),
offset:NSZeroSize,
event:theEvent,
pasteboard:draggingPasteBoard,
source: self,
slideBack:YES];
}
But here's the catch, I want the image to only move horizontally
within the bounds of the superview of the button.
Just like the bookmark buttons in the bookmark bar of Safari do.
Does anybody know of some code or opensource app that implements this
kind of behaviour?
Or could somebody explain me which class I need to subclass to add
this drawing behaviour to? Is it NSImage, or is there some sort of
drag & drop controller object?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers,
Eloy
