Is it possible for a NSSliderCell to work in "continuous" mode when inside a cell-based NSTableView? I've searched here on S.O. and also googled the question without seeing anything directly relevant.
In Interface Builder I have checked the "continuous' properties for both the Slidercell and the TableView, but I cannot get the slider to send out continuous messages.
I have no problem using NSSlider controls in continuous mode elsewhere in my application, and the Slidercell/Tableview in question here works fine as is, but updates only when the mouse is released.
Is it necessary to use a View-based Tableview to get this behaviour? I would rather not do that because it means a messy rewrite of the code for several other tableviews as well.
(edit) The below code is in VFX Forth, using their provided Cocoa bridge. The relevant portion in tableView:setObjectValue:forTableColumn:row: is :
" BPAd" theid$ @isEqualToString: ?of objectid @floatValue phr# paraatom# PHRASE.ATOM#>A +atomExtra 04 + SF! endof
" BPad" is the identifier for the column containing the slider cell.
'The next line just takes the floatValue from the slider and stores in into my data-structure.
The above all works exactly as expected, but ONLY on release of the mouse-button. It does not act continuously.
thanks in advance for any insight
