drawing lines in and NSTextView


  • Subject: drawing lines in and NSTextView

I have an NSTextView to which I want to add some lines that connect
certain words. When the text changes, either by editing, or scrolling,
that lines should follow the words. I thought about using
CoreAnimation, but text in a CATextLayer does not appear to be
editable like the text in an NSTextView (is that correct?).  So, an
alternative could be to override drawViewBackgroundInRect and use
NSBezierPaths to draw my lines and I will work on that this weekend.

Any thoughts or suggestions I may have overlooked?

- Koen.
