Nope that didn't do it. Same symptoms. Any other ideas before I throw
in the gauntlet and rewrite it?

When you modify a window it registers itself as needing redrawing in
the current run loop.
If you are performing active tracking, you may have to do so yourself.
Try calling [window flushWindowIfNeeded] on your window at the end
of your loop (inside the loop).
What is the reason for your explicit tracking?
You should be able to simply listen for mouseDragged, mouseDown, and
mouseUp on your split view (if this is a custom sub-class).

Hi,
I am tracking the mouse pointer to dynamically resize a splitter as a
separate drag handle is dragged. This is done in mouseDown: of the
drag handle with a custom event loop. The loop looks like this:
while (keepOn)
{
NSAutoreleasePool *pool = [[NSAutoreleasePool alloc] init];
theEvent = [[self window] nextEventMatchingMask:
NSAnyEventMask] ;// NSLeftMouseUpMask | NSLeftMouseDraggedMask];
switch ([theEvent type])
{
case NSLeftMouseUp:
keepOn = NO;
break;
case NSLeftMouseDragged:
[nc
postNotificationName:NSSplitViewWillResizeSubviewsNotification
object:splitView];
firstFrame = [[[splitView subviews] objectAtIndex:0] frame];
firstFrame.size.width = (isLeftResizer ?
MAX(0,roundf(([splitViewconvertPoint:[theEvent
locationInWindow] fromView:nil].x + offset) - firstFrame.origin.x)) :
MAX(0,roundf([splitViewconvertPoint:[theEvent
locationInWindow] fromView:nil].x - [splitViewdividerThickness] -
offset)));
firstFrame.size.width = MIN(MAX(firstFrame.size.width,min),max);
NSLog( @"SetFrame: %@" , NSStringFromRect(firstFrame) ) ;
[[[splitView subviews] objectAtIndex:0] setFrame:firstFrame];
NSLog( @"\tIs Now: %@" , NSStringFromRect([[[splitView subviews]
objectAtIndex:0] frame]) ) ;
[splitView adjustSubviews];
[nc postNotificationName:NSSplitViewDidResizeSubviewsNotification
object:splitView];
break;
default:
break;
}
[pool release] ;
}
NSLog( @"Finally: %@" , NSStringFromRect([[[splitView subviews]
objectAtIndex:0] frame]) ) ;
(you might recognize this is as the Scrivener custom split view code
available on the web)
Anyway, the visual updates to the screen seem to start lagging the
further right I drag the handle. You can see the NSLog()s I have in
the code; here is the output as I drag:
[...]
2009-03-10 14:37:42.428 SkootUI[8830:10b] SetFrame: {{0, 0}, {718,
604}}
2009-03-10 14:37:42.444 SkootUI[8830:10b] Is Now: {{0, 0}, {718,
604}}
2009-03-10 14:37:42.511 SkootUI[8830:10b] SetFrame: {{0, 0}, {721,
604}}
2009-03-10 14:37:42.539 SkootUI[8830:10b] Is Now: {{0, 0}, {721,
604}}
2009-03-10 14:37:42.596 SkootUI[8830:10b] SetFrame: {{0, 0}, {723,
604}}
2009-03-10 14:37:42.600 SkootUI[8830:10b] Is Now: {{0, 0}, {723,
604}}
2009-03-10 14:37:44.101 SkootUI[8830:10b] Finally: {{0, 0}, {684,
604}}
As you can see, as far as the view being resized is concerned, it is
being set to what I set it to as I drag the handle; i.e., the
"SetFrame:" dimensions match the "Is Now:" dimensions. During this
time, however, I can see the view sizing visually lag. When the drag
finishes and the "Finally" block prints out, querying the view for
its
frame displays what I believe to be the actual lagged dimensions.
Can anyone tell me what's going on?
Thanks,
Mike
