NSToolbar Bug


  • Subject: NSToolbar Bug
  • From: Karl Moskowski <email@hidden>

I've observed a weird toolbar bug for which I hope someone more versed than me in Cocoa mouse handling can offer a workaround.

I have an NSToolbar on a window with the Unified title/toolbar look. One of the items in the toolbar is a custom view containing a NSSlider that is initially hidden. I later programmatically show the slider. Once the slider is visible, dragging it also annoyingly drags the window - the window moves along with the slider's knob. (It also happens in other draggable control types, e.g., a pop-up button.)

The effect doesn't occur if the window doesn't have the unified look (e.g., it's textured), or if the slider is initially visible and I toggle its visiblity later. It also doesn't matter how the slider is hidden - check box in IB, setHidden:YES in awakeFromNib, Cocoa bindings hidden set to a BOOL.

I've filed a Radar bug along with a sample project. In the meantime, as a kludgy workaround, instead of hiding the slider, I can obscure the slider by overlaying a box the same color as the custom view's background and hiding/showing that instead.

However, I'd like to know if there's a more elegant solution - maybe a call to force something (the custom view? the window?) to correctly track the mouse.

Thanks in advance.
