Reset NSTextField's text to empty string — setText: doesn't work

Question

I have an NSTextField, and I need a button to reset the text of the field. How would I do that? I have been trying this:

[textBox setText:@\"\"];
te         


        

Answer 1

Try this code:

theLabel.text = @"this is some text";
[self.view addSubView:theLabel];

Here, the label is the text field.

Answer 2

If it is OSX and NSTextField then use :

[textBox setStringValue:@""];
