This never gets called unless I actually click in the search field.
My custom NSView has this as it's implementation of
viewDidMoveToWindow to move the cursor into the field:

-(void) viewDidMoveToWindow
{
	[[self window] makeFirstResponder:searchField];
}

It almost seems like this isn't really making the field the first
responder, at least not in the way that clicking on the field does.
Any thoughts on how to "properly" assign first responder status to a
text field in a view of a NSMenuItem?

Hi Jim,

This is a known bug.



And as a somewhat related question, can one programmatically change
the highlighted item in a menu?  There doesn't appear to be a
selectMenuItemAtIndex: method...

As always, thanks

No, this isn't possible yet.

Sorry I don't have better news,
-Peter
