Placeholder text on a multi-line NSTextField


  • Subject: Placeholder text on a multi-line NSTextField

I've opened radar #10954811 about the appearance of placeholder text
in a multi-line NSTextField. If the placeholder is sufficiently long,
when a user clicks the field and starts typing, only the first line of
placeholder text gets cleared until the edit is finished.

I ran across this while picking up a project that I hadn't worked on
since before the Lion upgrade. This would seem to be new behavior in
Lion.

Here is a trivial sample project that demonstrates the problem:

Does anyone know a way to work around this?

Thanks for any insight.

Regards,

Geoff
