Setting NSTextField inside drawRect:

Setting NSTextField inside drawRect:


  • Subject: Setting NSTextField inside drawRect:
  • From: "Gerriet M. Denkmann" <email@hidden>

I have in 10.4.11 an NSWindow with a MyView and an NSTextField.

- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)rect
{
[ [ NSColor redColor ] set ];
NSRectFill( rect );
[ textField setStringValue: @"Buh" ];

// without the following line, the textField will never show its new text:
[ self performSelector: @selector(textFieldUpdate) withObject: nil afterDelay: 0.0 ];
}


- (void)textFieldUpdate { [ textField setNeedsDisplay: YES ]; }

Why does setting an NSTextField form inside drawRect: not work?
Is this fact documented somewhere?

Kind regards,

Gerriet.
