I'm having hard time understanding and finding info about how to make NSViewController accept key and mouse events. I read somewhere that in order to register these events in NSViewController it should be added to a responder chain, but I can't find the answer how to properly do this.
Any kind of help is highly appreciated!
There's a nice tutorial found at CocoaWithLove.com.
Summed up: you'll create a subclass of NSView (e.g. "EugeneView") and then that subclass will have some extra methods in it, such as "setNextResponder
" and "setViewController
". And doing these two methods should get your NSViewController integrated into the responder chain.
Manually patching in the NSViewController
into the responder chain isn't necessary anymore as of OS X 10.10 Yosemite. According to WWDC '14, "they're automatically wired up in the responder chain right after their view."
Or if, as is the case most of the time, your controller's view is simply a generic container, insert your controller in the responder chain between its view and its subviews. This can be done with these lines of code in your controller's awakeFromNib:
Obj-C:
[self setNextResponder:self.view];
for (NSView *subview in self.view.subviews) {
[subview setNextResponder:self];
}
Swift:
override func awakeFromNib() {
super.awakeFromNib()
self.nextResponder = self.view
for subview in self.view.subviews {
subview.nextResponder = self
}
}
No subclassing needed.
