Re: NSPopUpButtons

[Gregory Casamento]

Riccardo,

I only get irked when Gorm is blamed without conclusive evidence.  None of what has been presented thus far constitutes this.  

If this is a matter of Gorm setting something wrong, I will be happy to help you locate the issue, but, given my investigation below I doubt that is the case.

I double checked GormPopUpButtonAttributesInspector.m in the debugger and it is setting a value of 3 (NSMaxYEdge) when changing the popup to a pull down and also it is setting the correct value (NSMaxYEdge) when changing  the arrow direction to "Down" in the inspector.

There does appear to be an issue with making the arrow point right, but that is unrelated to this issue.

Thanks, Greg

Yes, it looks like a bug. But the bug is in the way the popup button was initialized in the Gorm file. Stepping through the -initWithCoder: method of the NSPopUpButton cell class I noticed that the button's preferred edge is set to NSMinYEdge. However, this should be NSMaxYEdge. Maybe it helps to change the arrow in the pull down options from Down to Right and then back again. Otherwise, you might try and recreate the pull down buttons in the Gorm file.

Every time one touches Gorm, Gregory gets pricky about his toy.,,,

I suppose that the preferred edge cannot be set from the user?
- the gorm file did not change in the past 20 months snd it used to work
- why does the "test interface" in gorm work?

I then tried changing the popupbutton type back and forth and it worked for one but not both.. I didn't commit anything yet, it is too strange.
