This is more of a curiosity than anything else, but ...
I have a (non-document) window whose title is set with 'setTitleWithRepresentedFilename:'. The title actually shown in the title bar is the last path component of the file path, as expected.
I have an associated window whose title I'd like to be of the form "<base window title> — Info".
However when I try to build this from the base window's displayed title, I actually get a string with the file name and the path to the file, so I end up with something of the form "<base window title> — <long path to the file> — Info", which isn't really what I want.
The -[NSWindow title] documents this behavior ("If the title has been set using setTitleWithRepresentedFilename:, this method returns the file’s path."), but that leaves no way to get the actual displayed title.
Does anyone know of a way to get the actual displayed title?
Note:
1. As a work around, I am building the associated window title from the base window's 'miniwindowTitle', but there's no guarantee I can see that ensures (in the future) this will be what's displayed in the actual title bar of the base window.
2. In the past, I've used [NSWindowController windowTitleForDocumentDisplayName:] for this purpose, but that doesn't work in this case, since there's no actual document.
