I am porting a MacApp program to cocoa. I have hit a road block. I
have created a Tableview of text fields that I work fine. I need a
Tableview as the items and their type are not always the same and are
specified by data. Hence I can not just define the fields in IB. Their
value can always be shown as text, but this is not always the best way
to edit them. Some of the items in the Tableview are Booleans and
some are a selection from a standard lists. The behavior I had in
MacApp was, when the user clicks on one of these fields an appropriate
field editor appears in the field. If it is a normal text field the
regular text fieldeditior is fine. With either the Booleans or the
Lists, a check box or a pop-up to edit the field is shown as the field
editor. When the user hits Enter, the appropriate Boolean value or
associated PopUp-text value is shown in the tableview field.
I have been reading about use of windowWillReturnFieldEditor but this
seems to want a NSTextView as the editor. I want to provide some form
of button. Any help on an approach would be appreciated. Thanks
