NSTextField over NSOpenGLView

Question

I have made a window with an NSOpenGLView that I am rendering openGL content into.

I want to add some buttons and text fields to the view: I can add NSTextFields and NSB

Answer 1

NSOpenGLView cannot have subviews according to the documentation. Even if you subclass the NSOpenGLView, that will change nothing.

What you can do is to create a NSView that will hold both the NSOpenGLView and the NSTextField. You then overlap them in the right order to make one draw atop the other.
