As far as I can see the only difference between your and my code is that I'm using a fixed length of the StatusItem instead of the NSVariableStatusItemLength.

Now I use this code:

// instantiate statusbar-icon
NSStatusBar *systemBar = [NSStatusBar systemStatusBar];
theItem = [systemBar statusItemWithLength: NSVariableStatusItemLength];
[theItem retain];

NSView *tmpView = [[NSView alloc] initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0.0, 0.0, [theItem length], [[theItem statusBar] thickness])];
[theItem setView:tmpView];

NSRect globalOrigin = [[[theItem view] window] frame];
NSLog(@"%f/%f", globalOrigin.origin.x, globalOrigin.origin.y);

[theItem setView:nil];
[tmpView release];


The output is: "0.000000/0.000000" ... don't really know what's wrong with the code :-(

Hi Fabian,

since this is an international, english list, I think we should write english here. Even though my mother tongue is german too...

You can't create a View for the StatusItem with that size: The max height of the MenuBar is 22px. So I thing creating a view with a height of 50 will fail.

It's better to use the following:

[[NSView alloc] initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0.0, 0.0, [statusBarItem length], [[statusBarItem statusBar] thickness])]

This takes the actual length of created StatusItem and the thickness of the MenuBar into account.

Hope this helps

Joachim
