NSPopover - Hide when focus lost? (clicked outside of popover)

Question

I\'m using the doubleClickAction of a NSTableView to display a NSPopover. Something like this:

NSInteger selectedRow = [da         


        

Answer 1

the .transient flag doesn't work for me.

However I can make things work by the following:

1) Whenever I show my popover I make sure I activate the app (my app is a menu-bar app, so this doesn't happen automatically)

NSApp.activate(ignoringOtherApps: true)

2) When I click outside the app, then my app will be deactivated. I can detect this in the AppDelegate

func applicationWillResignActive(_ notification: Notification) {
    print("resign active")
}

and act accordingly
