Similarities between Rows and Columns -- Slots and Borders
Rows and columns are treated equally wherever it is practical and desirable to do so. Almost every action and option that is available for columns is also available for rows and vice versa. Slot is the generic term for a single column or row. Border is the generic term for row or column orientation. Size is the generic term for width or height. Most methods come in two flavors: a row/column specific flavor that uses row or column as part of the name; and a generic flavor that has a border argument and (when needed) a slot argument. Here are some examples:
Generic Specific
- border:setSlotTitlesOn: - setColumnTitlesOn:
- setRowTitlesOn:
- border:setSlot:size: - setColumn:size:
- setRow:size:
Differences between Rows and Columns
There are some differences between rows and columns. This object is designed to maximize the efficiency of displaying many rows of data. Hence, it is faster to add and remove rows than columns. You should set up all your columns in InterfaceBuilder, or while the table is empty, then add and remove rows afterwards. Rows are cached for re-use with the -renewRows: method. This makes it very fast to change the contents of the table on a row-oriented basis. Despite the row-oriented bias, column-oriented operations can be performed at any time; they will just be slower than the corresponding row-oriented operations. This behavior is intrinsic to the implementation, it cannot be changed.
Cell-prototypes are only used for columns. This behavior can only be changed by subclassing.
Selection in the body of a table performs selection on a row-wise basis. This behavior can be changed programmatically via the -trackBy: method.
There are numerous default settings which differ between columns and rows. Most of these options can be changed in InterfaceBuilder; all of them can be changed programmatically. Here is a summary of the defaults which differ between rows and columns:
Option Column Default Row Default
modifier drag NO YES
uniform size NO YES
user sizeable YES NO
user draggable YES NO
titles displayed YES NO
autosize-slots YES NO
min-size-constrained YES NO
title mode Custom Auto-Numbered
Slot Sizing
Uniform size is the simplest sizing mode. When you set the uniform size of a border to any non-zero value, all slots in that border will have the same (uniform) size. They will not be sizeable by the user, nor will they be allowed to have individually differing sizes. Setting the uniform size of a border to zero disables this feature, enabling slots to have individual sizes, and enabling user-sizing of slots in the border (subject to further conditions described below). By default, rows are uniform size, columns are not.
If uniform sizing is not set for a border, the following sizing information is maintained for each slot in the border:
target size
minimum size
maximum size
data size
adjusted size
user-sizeable-flag
expands-to-data-flag
autosize-flag
Target size is the desired size for a particular slot. Minimum and maximum sizes are the lower and upper bounds for the size of a slot. Data size is the size of the largest item in a slot for slots that are marked expands-to-data. Adjusted size is the final display size of the slot after all other factors have been taken into account. When a slot is marked as user-sizeable, the user will be able to resize the slot (subject to further conditions described below). When a slot is marked as expands-to-data, the display size will be increased as necessary to display the largest entry in that slot. Note that expands-to-data only affects the adjusted size. It does not affect the target size. Also note that expands-to-data will only increase the size of a slot, never decrease it. When a slot is marked as autosize, its adjusted size may be changed to meet global minimum and maximum size limits. The three flag values are mutually independent, but you should be careful, because user-sizeable and autosize do not mix well. They cause bizarre, counter-intuitive behavior on narrow tables in wide views.
Users resize columns by dragging the right-hand edge of the column's title cell to the desired width. Likewise, users resize rows by dragging the bottom edge of the row's title cell to the desired height. The cursor changes to a horizontal or vertical resize cursor whenever the cursor is over one of the resizing areas. When users resize a slot, they are setting the target size for the slot.
All of the following conditions must be met to enable the user to resize a particular slot:
(a) Uniform-size for the border must be disabled (-border:setUniformSize:0)
(b) The title cells must be displayed (-border:setSlotTitlesOn:YES)
(c) The border in question must allow user-sizing of slots (-border:setSizeableSlots:YES)
(d) The slot in question must be user-sizeable (-border:setSlot:sizeable:YES)
(e) There must be some room to grow or shrink between the slot's current adjusted size and the slot's minimum and maximum sizes.
All of these conditions are met by default for new columns, unless you explicitly disable one of the global options for column sizing.
Slot Dragging and Indexing -- Visual vs. Physical
Dragging and sizing are independent of each other. You can have borders that are not sizeable in any way, but are still draggable, and vice versa. You can also have borders that are both draggable and sizeable, or neither draggable nor sizeable.
Users drag slots by dragging the title cells until the leading edge is over the desired new location and "dropping" the slot there. For example, the left edge of the cell shows you where the column will end up when dragging a column to the left. Likewise, the right edge is used when the column is dragged to the right. This makes it possible to clearly see the new location without guessing.
Dragging must be enabled for that border. By default, columns are dragged with an unmodified drag, and they are selected with a command-drag. By default, rows are selected with an unmodified drag, and they are dragged with a command-drag. By default, dragging is enabled for columns, but not for rows.
If slot-dragging is enabled for a border then an internal mapping vector is maintained which translates the original physical position of the slot to its current visual position. All programmer-interface methods and all delegate call-back methods use the original physical position of the slot so you can ignore the current visual ordering in your programs. If you need or want to examine the current visual ordering, you can do so with the -border:slotPosition: and -border:slotAtPosition: methods.
Keyboard Operations
MiscTableScroll provides keyboard control over almost all functions. Keyboard equivalents are available for scrolling, selection, and performing actions (simulating double-click). This class displays a dashed rectangle around the slot which is currently the focus of keyboard operations. Display of the cursor can be disabled and re-enabled with calls to the methods -disableCursor and -enableCursor.
As with all other views, this control can be linked into a window's next-key-view chain using -nextKeyView, -setNextKeyView:, and so forth -- as well as being connected directly in Interface Builderä.
The keyboard cursor can be moved with the standard arrow keys as well as the editing keys on the numeric keypad, including the page-up, page-down, home, and end keys -- as well as the real page-up, page-down, home, and end on keyboards which actually supply these keys. For functions which do not normally appear on any keyboard -- such as page-left and page-right -- modified arrow-keys can be used. Please refer to the following table:
Key(²) Action Action Modified(³)
space select slot select slot
return perform action perform action
up-arrow up page-up
down-arrow down page-down
left-arrow left page-left
right-arrow right page-right
page-up page-up top-edge
page-down page-down bottom-edge
home top-edge left-edge
end bottom-edge right-edge
enter(*) perform action perform action
insert(*) select slot select slot
(²) These functions are recognized when generated from both the standard editing keys as well as those on the numeric keypad.
(³) Modified actions are produced by holding down a modifier while typing the primary key. Any of Shift, Control, or Alt can be used to produce a modified action -- and all have the same affect. So, for instance, one can generate a page-left from any of ctrl-left-arrow, shift-left-arrow, or alt-left-arrow.
(*) Applicable to the numeric keypad only.
Keys which perform the select-slot function simulate a single mouse-click. Keys which perform perform-action simulate a double mouse-click. When performing a select-slot via the keyboard, one can use the same modifier keys one uses when selecting via the mouse. In other words, one can use shift-single-click to select multiple slots (one at a time) with the mouse. Likewise one can use shift-space to select multiple slots (one at a time) with the keyboard.
Selection Modes
Three selection modes are supported: List, Highlight, and Radio. Unlike NSMatrix, this class treats the different selection modes as uniformly as possible (see Mouse Tracking below). Methods such as -selectionMode and -setSelectionMode: allow direct control over the mode.
Methods such as -hasRowSelection, -numberOfSelectedRows, -rowIsSelected:, as well as the border and slot variations allow selection querying, while methods such as -selectedRows, -selectedRowTags, -selectRows:, and -selectRowTags: along with their variations allow batch-oriented selection modification.
Mouse Tracking
The manner in which MiscTableScroll performs mouse-tracking is different from the manner in which NSMatrix does so. This class gives the cells the opportunity to track the mouse in all selection modes, whereas NSMatrix allows the cells to participate in mouse-tracking in all but List mode. NSMatrix make a special case of List mode, and in addition to the mouse-tracking difference it also modifies the cells' state variables in this mode. In all other modes NSMatrix allows the cell's mouse-tracking methods to manipulate the state rather than doing so itself. MiscTableScroll, on the other hand, treats all selection modes uniformly. It always highlights a cell via its highlight flag and never alters the cell's state -- instead it leaves alteration of state to the cell's mouse-tracking methods.
Upon receipt of a -mouseDown:, this class gives the cell at the mouse-down location an opportunity to track the mouse by invoking its -trackMouse:inRect:ofView:untilMouseUp: method. That method normally tracks the mouse until either a mouse-up event in which case it returns YES, or until the mouse leaves the cell-frame in which case it returns NO. If -trackMouse:inRect:ofView:untilMouseUp: returns NO, then MiscTableScroll goes into its own modal-responder loops, continues tracking the mouse itself, and updates the selection appropriately until a mouse-up event. Only the cell under the mouse-down event is given a chance to participate in tracking -- after that no other cells are offered the opportunity.
Image Dragging
MiscTableScroll has built in support for dragging images right out of cells using the standard NeXT dragging services. Dragging is enabled by implementing a few of simple methods in the delegate or dataDelegate. Two required methods are -tableScroll:allowDragOperationAtRow:column: and -tableScroll:preparePasteboard:forDragOperationAtRow:column:. Each method is passed a pointer to the MiscTableScroll and the cell's physical coordinates. The first method gives the delegate or dataDelegate a chance to allow or veto the drag operation. The second method is responsible for declaring types and, possibly, providing data for the pasteboard.
A third delegate method -tableScroll:imageForDragOperationAtRow:column: is required for non-image cells and optional for cells which contain an image. This method allows the delegate or dataDelegate to supply an image for dragging. If the cell from which dragging is taking place contains its own image, then this method need not be implemented or can return 0, in which case the cell's own image is used by default.
Other methods allow the delegate or dataDelegate to respond to the standard dragging source protocol methods.
As usual, when dealing with pasteboards, keep in mind that if a non-nil owner is specified, the NSPasteboard will retain it. Only upon the initiation of another dragging operation will the owner receive the -pasteboardChangedOwner: message and be released. Therefore the owner needs to remain in a valid state, along with any necessary data, even after completion of the drag operation.
Lazy vs. Eager
In general, eager mode is much easier to use than lazy mode. In eager mode, you can usually take advantage of the cells themselves to store the data that you are retrieving and displaying. Even complex data types can be stored by allocating the record and a storing pointer in the cell's tag or represented-object, or the tag for a row. By contrast, lazy mode forces you to manage all the storage yourself. In eager mode, the MiscTableScroll object allocates and manages a dense matrix of cells, which you fill in with data as needed. In lazy mode, the MiscTableScroll object does not manage any cells at all. You are responsible for implementing -tableScroll:cellAtRow:column: to provide the MiscTableScroll object with a cell whenever it needs one. In lazy mode, you generally want to implement many of the -tableScroll:...ValueAtRow:column: methods to improve performance.
Prototype Cells
Each column maintains a prototype cell which is used when new rows are created. When new rows are created, a -copyWithZone: message is sent to the prototype cell for each column, and the new copy of the prototype cell is put into the new row. This means that all prototype cells must implement the -copyWithZone: method appropriately. Generally this implies performing a deep copy.
The prototype cell can be one of the built-in types (text, icon, or button), it can be supplied by the delegate, or you can set it programmatically. If you set a prototype cell programmatically, the MiscTableScroll object will retain the prototype cell, and will release it when it is finished with it. If the delegate provides the prototype cell, the delegate retains ownership -- the MiscTableScroll object will neither retain nor release prototype cells provided by the delegate.
Cell Editing

<??? FIXME: Discuss that standard text-editing delegate messages get sent to delegate(s), along with those specific to MiscTableScroll. ?>
Cell Owner and Inherited Font and Color Attributes
The MiscTableScroll class implements an informal owner protocol with the cells that it manages. The MiscTableCell class implements the other side this informal protocol. This protocol enables the cells to specify that they want to inherit their font and color attributes from their owner. In this case, the owner is the MiscTableScroll object. This makes it possible to propagate global default font and color attributes to all such cells easily and efficiently. At the same time, individual cells can use custom font and color attributes which will override the global default inherited values. Cells that use the inherited values do not need to store copies of those inherited values. Only cells that use custom values need to remember and store their own custom values. See the documentation for the MiscTableCell class for more details.
Cell Owner and Owner-Draw
Another feature of the informal owner protocol is a specialized notion of delegated drawing. All cells in an instance of MiscTableScroll that respond YES to the -ownerDraw message are drawn by the MiscTableScroll rather than drawing themselves. Since the MiscTableScroll object typically manages many cells with similar font and color attributes, the MiscTableScroll object can eliminate a large amount of redundant font and color setting PostScript code. Likewise, contiguous cells with the same background colors have all of their backgrounds drawn with a single PostScript operator rather than several. The built-in drawing mechanism also eliminates a lot of very expensive clipping path operations by simply not drawing partial characters that would be clipped. Any object used as a cell in an instance of MiscTableScroll object can take advantage of these facilities as long as the cell consists of only simple text with a single (optional) icon, and does not have borders or other drawing requirements. This mechanism results in a very considerable improvement in drawing performance.
Usage Tips
For simple, flexible and maintainable access to the columns of the table scroll, you should declare an enum which identifies the columns in the MiscTableScroll, for instance:
enum
{
PHOTO_SLOT,
LAST_NAME_SLOT,
FIRST_NAME_SLOT,
AGE_SLOT
};
Then you use the enumeration identifiers whenever you need to specify a column. Using an enumeration this way lets you add, remove and shuffle the slots just by updating the enum declaration, rather than searching through the code to find all the places that need to be fixed. It also makes your code more readable.
There are two standard patterns for putting the data into eager (non-lazy) MiscTableScroll objects: -renewRows: and -addRow.
-renewRows:
When you know the number of rows in advance, it is most efficient to use the -renewRows: method to tell the MiscTableScroll object the number of rows that you will need. Your code will usually be structured as follows:
int row;
int const nrows = [dataSource count];
[tableScroll renewRows:nrows];
for (row = 0; row < nrows; row++)
{
id item = [dataSource itemAtRow:row];
[tableScroll setRow:row tag:(int)[item retain]];
[[tableScroll cellAtRow:row column:LAST_NAME_SLOT] setStringValue:[item lastName]];
[[tableScroll cellAtRow:row column:AGE_SLOT] setIntValue:[item age]];
//... and so on ...
}
if ([tableScroll autoSortRows])
[tableScroll sortRows];
-addRow
When you do not know the final number of rows in advance, your code will usually be structured as follows:
id item;
int row = 0;
[tableScroll empty];
while ((item = [self getNextItem]) != 0)
{
[tableScroll addRow];
[tableScroll setRow:row tag:(int)[item retain]];
[[tableScroll cellAtRow:row column:LAST_NAME_SLOT] setStringValue:[item lastName]];
[[tableScroll cellAtRow:row column:AGE_SLOT] setIntValue:[item age]];
//... and so on ...
row++;
}
[tableScroll sizeToCells];
if ([tableScroll autoSortRows])
[tableScroll sortRows];
A common programming mistake is forgetting to call -sizeToCells. You must call -sizeToCells after you have finished adding rows so that the MiscTableScroll can update the frames of its various subviews. If you forget to call -sizeToCells, the MiscTableScroll will appear to be empty when it is displayed.
Smart Memory Management
The MiscTableScroll class implements smart memory management. It does not allocate support structures until and unless they are needed. For example, since rows are uniform-size by default, the MiscTableScroll will not allocate the array of sizing-info structures until and unless you make the rows non-uniform size. In a complimentary fashion, if you make the columns uniform size, the MiscTableScroll object will release the sizing-info array for the columns. Similarly, custom titles must be stored in an array. However, no other title-mode requires this array, and the array will only exist for borders that have custom titles. Likewise, the visual-to-physical mapping vector that supports user-draggable slots is only created when the first slot is actually moved. Even if the draggable option is turned on, you will not incur the memory overhead until the option is used. The net result of all this is that you only pay for the features that you use.
On the other hand, you do pay for the features that you do use. These extra features exact a price in storage and cpu. You should be careful about using them for rows when you expect thousands of rows.
The MiscTableScroll class is designed to provide high-quality, consistent, flexible behavior to the user while supporting a wide range of load requirements -- from dozens of rows to hundreds of thousands of rows. Smart memory management is an important element in achieving that goal.
Errors
The only exception currently raised by MiscTableScroll is NSInternalInconsistencyException. This exception is raised when MiscTableScroll detects an internal inconsistency. This is typically indicative of a bug within this class.
This exception is also currently raised when an out-of-range slot index is passed as an argument to a method which can not sensibly handle the bad index. For instance, there is no sensible value which -rowTag: can return when given a bad index, hence it raises an exception. On the other hand no exception is raised by -selectRow: since it can simply ignore the bad index. <???FIXME: In the future such methods will raise a more suitable exception, such as NSRangeException.?>

Class Methods
defaultBackgroundColor
+ (NSColor*)defaultBackgroundColor
Returns [NSColor lightGrayColor]. This is the default background color for new MiscTableScroll objects.
defaultFont
+ (NSFont*)defaultFont
Returns the user's preferred font at 12pt size. This is the default font for new MiscTableScroll objects.
defaultSelectedBackgroundColor
+ (NSColor*)defaultSelectedBackgroundColor
Returns [NSColor whiteColor]. This is the default selected background color for new MiscTableScroll objects.
defaultSelectedTextColor
+ (NSColor*)defaultSelectedTextColor
Returns [NSColor blackColor]. This is the default selected text color for new MiscTableScroll objects.
defaultTextColor
+ (NSColor*)defaultTextColor
Returns [NSColor blackColor]. This is the default text color for new MiscTableScroll objects.
Instance Methods
abortEditing
- (void)abortEditing
Abort cell editing. Does not go though the normal -control:textShouldEndEditing: validation method, nor does it go through the -controlTextDidEndEditing: method.
action
- (SEL)action
Returns the action associated with a single click
addColumn
- (void)addColumn
Appends a new column. See Usage Tips in the introduction for a more complete discussion. Equivalent to: -addSlot:MISC_COL_BORDER.
addRow
- (void)addRow
Appends a new row to the table. If you know how many rows you will need in advance, you should use -renewRows: instead; it will be faster. If you do not know the number of rows in advance, use this method. This method is faster than -insertColumn:. Internally, the table pre-allocates rows with a geometric growth pattern so there are only a logarithmic number of allocations. See Usage Tips in the introduction for a more complete discussion. Equivalent to: -addSlot:MISC_ROW_BORDER.
This method does no drawing, nor does it update the frames of the various subviews. (This enhances performance when adding hundreds or thousands of rows.) After you have finished adding rows, you must call -sizeToCells so that the MiscTableScroll can update the frames of the various subviews.
addSlot:
- (void)addSlot:(MiscBorderType)b
Appends a new row or column to the table. Appending rows is fast (geometric growth, logarithmic allocations, no shifting). Appending columns is slower (linear growth, linear allocations, lots of shifting). See Usage Tips in the introduction for a more complete discussion.
See also: -renewRows:
autoSortColumns
- (BOOL)autoSortColumns
Indicates whether columns will be automatically sorted when the user drags rows. Equivalent to -autoSortSlots:MISC_COL_BORDER.
autoSortRows
- (BOOL)autoSortRows
Indicates whether rows will be automatically sorted when the user drags columns. Equivalent to -autoSortSlots:MISC_ROW_BORDER.
autoSortSlots:
- (BOOL)autoSortSlots:(MiscBorderType)b
Indicates whether or not slots on the given border will be automatically sorted when the user drags (rearranges) slots on the other border.
backgroundColor
- (NSColor*)backgroundColor
Returns the current background color for the MiscTableScroll object. The background color is used as the background color of unselected cells in the table body as well as the exposure color for areas not covered by cells.
border:compareSlots::
- (int)border:(MiscBorderType)b compareSlots:(int)slot1 :(int)slot2
This method compares two slots. Returns a value less than zero if slot1 should sort before slot2, zero if slot1 should sort equally with slot2, or greater than zero if slot1 should sort after slot2. It calls -sortInfoInit:border: to compute the sorting information, then calls -border:compareSlots::info:, and finally cleans up with -slotInfoDone:.
See also: -border:compareSlots::info:, -border:slotIsSorted:, -border:sortSlot:
border:compareSlots::info:
- (int)border:(MiscBorderType)b compareSlots:(int)slot1 :(int)slot2 info:(MiscSlotSortInfo*)sortInfo
This method compares two slots, given a pointer to the precomputed sorting information. If you call this method, you are responsible for initializing sortInfo by calling -sortInfoInit:border:, and then releasing the resources by calling -sortInfoDone:.
See also: -border:compareSlots::, -sortInfoDone:, -sortInfoInit:border:
border:constrainMaxTotalSize:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b constrainMaxTotalSize:(BOOL)flag
This method instructs the MiscTableScroll object whether or not to tie the maximum total size of the border, b, to the corresponding size of the NSScrollView in which the table is displayed. When flag is YES, the maximum total size will be constrained to match the corresponding size of the scroll view, and it will be automatically adjusted whenever the size of the scroll view changes. When flag is NO, this will not happen. Maximum sizes are not constrained by default.
See also: -border:constrainMinTotalSize:, -maxTotalSizeIsConstrained:, -border:setMaxTotalSize:
border:constrainMinTotalSize:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b constrainMinTotalSize:(BOOL)flag
This method instructs the MiscTableScroll object whether or not to tie the minimum total size of the border, b, to the corresponding size of the NSScrollView in which the table is displayed. When flag is YES, the minimum total size will be constrained to match the corresponding size of the scroll view, and it will be automatically adjusted whenever the size of the scroll view changes. When flag is NO, this will not happen. Minimum sizes are constrained by default for columns, but not for rows.
See also: -border:constrainMaxTotalSize:, -minTotalSizeIsConstrained:, -border:setMinTotalSize:
border:deselectSlot:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b deselectSlot:(MiscCoord_P)slot
Deselects the indicated slot.
border:deselectSlots:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b deselectSlots:(NSArray*)slots
Deselects each slot in slots, which should be an array of NSNumber objects each containing a slot index.
border:deselectSlotTags:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b deselectSlotTags:(NSArray*)tags
Deselects all slots whose tag value can be found in tags, which should be an array of NSNumber objects.
border:drawSlot:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b drawSlot:(int)n
Draws a single row or column. This method locks focus on the view if needed.
See also: -drawCellAtRow:column:, -drawColumn:, -drawRow:
border:drawSlotTitle:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b drawSlotTitle:(int)n
Draws the title cell for a single row or column. This method locks focus on the view if needed. You should never need to call this method in normal use, though it might be useful for subclasses.
See also: -drawColumnTitle:, -drawRowTitle:
border:insertSlot:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b insertSlot:(int)pos
Inserts a single row or column at the indicated position. Position is a zero-based index. The slot is inserted at physical index pos, and also at visual index pos. This method performs linear allocation, and is slower than the corresponding -addRow method when adding new rows to a table.
border:moveSlotFrom:to:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b moveSlotFrom:(int)from_pos to:(int)to_pos
This is equivalent to the user dragging a slot from from_pos to to_pos. Both from_pos and to_pos are zero-based indexes into the current visual ordering of the slots.
border:physicalToVisual:
- (NSArray*)border:(MiscBorderType)b physicalToVisual:(NSArray*)list
This method accepts an array of NSNumber objects each containing a physical (original) slot index, and returns an array containing the corresponding visual (current) slot indexes. This is accomplished via a succession of calls to -border:slotPosition:.
See also: -border:slotPosition:, -border:visualToPhysical:
border:removeSlot:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b removeSlot:(int)pos
Removes a single row or column. All cells are released and other internal resources for the slot are deallocated immediately. If you are just emptying the table so that you can refill it with new data, use -renewRows: or -empty instead since these methods cache the cells for later re-use. See Usage Tips in the introduction for a more complete discussion.
See also: -empty, -emptyAndReleaseCells, -renewRows:
border:selectSlot:byExtension:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b selectSlot:(MiscCoord_P)slot byExtension:(BOOL)flag
Selects the indicated slot. If flag is YES then does not clear the previous selection, hence slot is added to the existing selection. If flag is NO then the previous selection is cleared.
border:selectSlot:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b selectSlot:(MiscCoord_P)slot
Equivalent to: -border:b selectSlot:slot byExtension:NO.
border:selectSlots:byExtension:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b selectSlots:(NSArray*)slots byExtension:(BOOL)flag
Selects each slot in slots, which should be an array of NSNumber objects each containing a slot index. If flag is YES then does not clear the previous selection, hence slots are added to the existing selection. If flag is NO then the previous selection is cleared.
border:selectSlots:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b selectSlots:(NSArray*)slots
Equivalent to: -border:b selectSlots:slots byExtension:NO.
border:selectSlotTags:byExtension:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b selectSlotTags:(NSArray*)tags byExtension:(BOOL)flag
Selects all slots whose tag value can be found in tags, which should be an array of NSNumber objects. If flag is YES then does not clear the previous selection, hence the slots found in tags are added to the existing selection. If flag is NO then the previous selection is cleared. This method is useful in conjunction with -selectedSlotTags: to save and restore the user's selection when you have tag values that uniquely identify the slots.
border:selectSlotTags:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b selectSlotTags:(NSArray*)tags
Equivalent to: -border:b selectSlotTags:tags byExtension:NO.
border:setAutoSortSlots:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setAutoSortSlots:(BOOL)flag
Instructs the MiscTableScroll object whether or not to automatically sort the slots in border b, when the user drags a slot from the other border. For example, when you tell the MiscTableScroll object to auto-sort rows, the rows will be automatically sorted every time the user drags a column to a new position. AutoSort is off by default.
border:setCursorSlot:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setCursorSlot:(MiscCoord_P)slot
Sets the keyboard cursor to slot.
border:setDraggableSlots:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setDraggableSlots:(BOOL)flag
Enables or disables reordering of the slots. To let the user drag slots, the titles must be displayed, and the slots must be draggable.
See also: -border:setModifierDragSlots:, -border:setSizeableSlots:, -border:setSlotTitlesOn:
border:setFirstVisibleSlot:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setFirstVisibleSlot:(int)n
Scrolls the table so that slot n is the first slot displayed if possible.
border:setLastVisibleSlot:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setLastVisibleSlot:(int)n
Scrolls the table so that slot n is the last slot displayed if possible.
border:setMaxTotalSize:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setMaxTotalSize:(float)size
Sets the maximum total size for border b. Whenever the normal total size of the border would be more than the maximum total size, all autosize slots shrink proportionately until either the total size meets the global maximum limit, or all autosize slots have shrunk to their minimum sizes. Local, slot-specific minimum sizes take precedence over the global maximum size.
See also: -border:constrainMaxSize:, -border:setMinTotalSize:, -maxTotalSize:
border:setMinTotalSize:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setMinTotalSize:(float)size
Sets the minimum total size for border b. Whenever the normal total size of the border would be less than the minimum total size, all autosize slots grow proportionately until either the total size meets the global minimum limit, or all autosize slots have grown to their maximum sizes. Local, slot-specific maximum sizes take precedence over the global minimum size.
See also: -border:constrainMinSize:, -border:setMaxTotalSize:, -minTotalSize:
border:setModifierDragSlots:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setModifierDragSlots:(BOOL)flag
This option controls whether an unmodified mouse-down initiates selection, or slot-dragging. When flag is YES, an unmodified mouse-down initiates selection, and the user must hold down the command-key to drag a slot. When flag is NO, an unmodified mouse-down initiates dragging, and the user must hold down the command-key to select a slot. By default, columns are dragged with an unmodified mouse-down and selected when the command-key modifier is used. By default, rows behave the other way; an unmodified mouse-down initiates selection, and a command-key modifier must be used to initiate dragging.
border:setSizeableSlots:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSizeableSlots:(BOOL)flag
Enables or disables user-sizing of the slots. Many conditions must be met to enable the user to resize a particular slot. See Slot Sizing in the introduction for details.
border:setSlot:autosize:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n autosize:(BOOL)flag
Enables or disables autosizing for a particular slot. When YES, the slot will be adjusted proportionately with all other autosize slots in the border to meet global minimum or maximum size restrictions for the border as a whole. Currently, this only has effect for columns in narrow tables displayed in wide NSScrollViews. See Slot Sizing in the introduction for more details.
border:setSlot:cellPrototype:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n cellPrototype:(id)cell
Set the cell prototype for a slot. Currently, only column cell prototypes are used. When new rows are allocated for the table, the cell prototype from each column is sent a -copyWithZone: message. The newly created cell is placed into the newly created row. Thus all prototype cells must implement the -copyWithZone: message appropriately. (In general, this implies making a deep copy.) The MiscTableScroll retains cell when this method is invoked and releases it when it is no longer needed.
See also: -border:setSlot:cellType:
border:setSlot:cellType:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n cellType:(MiscTableCellStyle)t
Sets the type of cell that will be used for a particular slot. Currently, only column cell types have any effect; row cell types are ignored. The cell type, t, can be any of the following (declared in MiscTableTypes.h):
MISC_TABLE_CELL_TEXT
MISC_TABLE_CELL_IMAGE
MISC_TABLE_CELL_BUTTON
MISC_TABLE_CELL_CALLBACK
When this method is called, the MiscTableScroll object will create a prototype cell for the indicated slot of the indicated type. MISC_TABLE_CELL_TEXT creates a text-cell; MISC_TABLE_CELL_IMAGE creates an image-cell; MISC_TABLE_CELL_BUTTON creates a button-cell; and MISC_TABLE_CELL_CALLBACK instructs the MiscTableScroll object to ask the delegate for the for the prototype cell. <???FIXME: What is the interaction with setting an explicit prototype cell? What message is sent to the delegate to get the prototype? When is the message sent? Does it ask for the cell itself, or just a prototype? Is it sent to the delegate, or the data-delegate?>
See also: -border:setSlot:cellPrototype:
border:setSlot:dataSize:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n dataSize:(float)size
Sets the size of the data at slot n for slots which automatically size-to-data. <???FIXME: Currently unimplemented.?>
border:setSlot:expandsToData:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n expandsToData:(BOOL)flag
Sets the expands-to-data flag for slot n. When flag is YES, the slot will expand as needed to accommodate the largest entry in that slot. Only the adjusted-size of a slot is affected, and it can only be increased, never decreased. Expansions resulting from expands-to-data will not exceed the maximum size for the slot. When flag is NO, no such adjustment will be made. See Slot Sizing in the introduction for more details. <???FIXME: How is the largest size determined? When does it get adjusted?>
border:setSlot:maxSize:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n maxSize:(float)size
Sets the maximum size for slot n. The size argument is in units of screen pixels. This limit affects user resizing of slots; the target size for a slot, and automatic slot expansions performed to accommodate the expands-to-data and autosize flags. See Slot Sizing in the introduction for more details.
border:setSlot:minSize:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n minSize:(float)size
Sets the minimum size for slot n. The size argument is in units of screen pixels. This limit affects user resizing of slots, and acts as a limit on the target size for a slot. See Slot Sizing in the introduction for more details.
border:setSlot:size:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n size:(float)size
Sets the target size for slot n. The size argument is in units of screen pixels. See Slot Sizing in the introduction for more details.
border:setSlot:sizeable:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n sizeable:(BOOL)flag
Sets the user-sizeable flag for slot n. When flag is YES, the user will be able to resize the slot. When flag is NO, the user will not be able to resize the slot. There are many conditions which must be met for a user to be able to resize a slot. See Slot Sizing in the introduction for more details.
border:setSlot:sortDirection:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n sortDirection:(MiscSortDirection)x
Indicates whether slot n should be sorted in ascending or descending order. X must be one of the following two values from MiscTableTypes.h:
MISC_SORT_ASCENDING
MISC_SORT_DESCENDING
All other values are ignored.
See also: -border:setSlot:sortType:, -border:setSlot:sortFunction:, -border:slotSortDirection:
border:setSlot:sortFunction:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n sortFunction:(MiscCompareEntryFunc)func
Makes func the cell-to-cell comparison routine for the cells in slot n. The function, func, must match the following prototype from MiscTableTypes.h:
typedef int (*MiscCompareEntryFunc)
( int r1, int c1, int r2, int c2,
MiscEntrySortInfo const* entry_info,
MiscSlotSortInfo* sort_info );
The function is given the coordinates of the two cells, and two pointers to structures containing additional sorting information. The function should return an integer that is: (a) less than zero if the cell at (r1,c1) should sort before the cell at (r2,c2), (b) equal to zero if the two cells should sort equally, or (c) greater than zero if the cell at (r1,c1) should sort after the cell at (r2,c2).
The sort direction (ascending or descending) is applied to the value returned by the cell-to-cell comparison function by the slot-to-slot comparison function. So if you supply a custom cell-to-cell comparison function you should ignore the sort direction for that slot. You should always return the ascending sort-order value.
Use this method when you need to perform custom sorting that the built-in sort-types cannot accommodate.
See also: -border:setSlot:sortDirection:, -border:setSlot:sortType:, -border:slotSortFunction:
border:setSlot:sortType:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n sortType:(MiscSortType)x
Sets the type of sorting to be used by the built-in cell-to-cell comparison function for cells in slot n. The sort type, x, must be one of the following values from MiscTableTypes.h:
MISC_SORT_STRING_CASE_INSENSITIVE
MISC_SORT_STRING_CASE_SENSITIVE
MISC_SORT_INT
MISC_SORT_UNSIGNED_INT
MISC_SORT_TAG
MISC_SORT_UNSIGNED_TAG
MISC_SORT_FLOAT
MISC_SORT_DOUBLE
MISC_SORT_SKIP
MISC_SORT_TITLE_CASE_INSENSITIVE
MISC_SORT_TITLE_CASE_SENSITIVE
MISC_SORT_STATE
MISC_SORT_UNSIGNED_STATE
All other values are ignored. Each of the types is described below.
MISC_SORT_STRING_CASE_INSENSITIVE
MISC_SORT_STRING_CASE_SENSITIVE
The cells are compared as strings. The string values are retrieved using the -stringValueAtRow:column: message. MISC_SORT_STRING_CASE_INSENSITIVE is the default sort-type.
MISC_SORT_INT
MISC_SORT_UNSIGNED_INT
The cells are compared as integers. The integer values are retrieved using the -intValueAtRow:column: message.
MISC_SORT_TAG
MISC_SORT_UNSIGNED_TAG
The cells are compared as integers. The integer values are retrieved using the -tagAtRow:column: message. This feature is useful for sorting that is handled "behind-the-scenes". For example, if the slot holds date information, you can put a numeric representation of the date (such as that obtained with -[NSDate timeIntervalSinceReferenceDate]) into the cell's tag, and format the string value any way you wish. The slot will sort correctly regardless of the display format. It is also useful for slots that hold keywords from an ordered set of values, like the following enumeration:
enum Severity { Notice, Warning, Error, Fatal };
Sorting these alphabetically does not make sense, but if you put the enum value into the tag of the cell, you can sort them correctly. This sort type also makes it possible to sort slots that hold icons.
MISC_SORT_FLOAT
The cells are compared as single-precision floating point numbers. The values are retrieved using the -floatValueAtRow:column: message.
MISC_SORT_DOUBLE
The cells are compared as double-precision floating point numbers. The values are retrieved using the -doubleValueAtRow:column: message.
MISC_SORT_SKIP
The cells are not compared. All cells in slots with the MISC_SORT_SKIP sort-type are considered equal. This can be used for slots that should not affect the sorting.
MISC_SORT_TITLE_CASE_INSENSITIVE
MISC_SORT_TITLE_CASE_SENSITIVE
The cells are compared as strings. The string values are retrieved using the -titleAtRow:column: message. This is provided to support NSButtonCells.
MISC_SORT_STATE
MISC_SORT_UNSIGNED_STATE
The cells are compared as integers. The integer values are retrieved using the -stateAtRow:column: message. This is provided to support NSButtonCells.
See also: -border:setSlot:sortDirection:, -border:setSlot:sortFunction:, -border:slotSortType:
border:setSlot:tag:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b tag:(int)tag
Sets the tag for slot n to tag.
border:setSlot:title:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlot:(int)n title:(NSString*)title
Sets the title for slot n to title. This method only works for borders with custom titles (that is, -border:b setSlotTitleMode:MISC_CUSTOM_TITLE). If the border does not have custom titles, the request is silently ignored.
See also: -border:setSlotTitleMode:
border:setSlotOrder:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlotOrder:(NSArray*)list
Rearranges the slots to match the order specified by list, which is an array of NSNumber objects. The list is organized in the physical (original) order of the slots. Each value in the list is the new visual position for the corresponding slot. In other words, list is a physical to visual mapping. This is useful for restoring the user's slot-order preference.
List also encodes the sort direction. Negative values set the slot sort direction to descending. Positive values set the slot sort direction to ascending. Negative values are formed by using the 'C' bitwise complement operator (~).
See also: -border:setSlotOrderFromString:, -border:setSlotSizes:, -slotOrder:
border:setSlotOrderFromString:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlotOrderFromString:(NSString*)s
This is a convenience method which invokes -border:setSlotOrder: using an NSArray constructed from s.
See also: -border:setSlotOrder:, -border:setSlotSizes:, -slotOrder:
border:setSlotSizes:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlotSizes:(NSArray*)list
Sets the sizes of all slots to the values in list, which is an array of NSNumber objects. List is organized in physical (original) slot order. Each value is the size of the corresponding slot. This method is useful for restoring the user's slot size preferences.
See also: -border:setSlotOrder:, -border:setSlotSizesFromString:, -slotSizes:
border:setSlotSizesFromString:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlotSizesFromString:(NSString*)s
This is a convenience method which invokes -border:setSlotSizes: using an NSArray constructed from s.
See also: -border:setSlotOrder:, -border:setSlotSizes:, -slotSizes:
border:setSlotSortVector:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlotSortVector:(NSArray*)v
Sets the order in which slots are considered when sorting. Each value in v, which is an array of NSNumber objects, is the physical (original) position of a slot. The slots will be compared in the order that they appear in v. Use the one's complement (bitwise negation with the tilde, `~', operator) to reverse the sort direction (ascending / descending) of a slot. The current visual slot order is used by default; use this method to specify a different ordering. This method turns off auto-sort for the other border. That is, setting a slotSortVector for the columns turns off auto-sort for the rows. The auto-sort facility automatically sorts the table whenever a slot is dragged, so setting a slot sort vector invalidates the premise on which auto-sort works.
See also: -slotSortVector
border:setSlotTitleMode:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlotTitleMode:(MiscTableTitleMode)x
Sets the title-mode for a border. The title-mode, x, can be any of the following (declared in MiscTableTypes.h):
MISC_NO_TITLE, // No titles on row/column cells.
MISC_NUMBER_TITLE, // Titles are sequential numbers.
MISC_ALPHA_TITLE, // Titles are sequential alphabetics...
MISC_CUSTOM_TITLE, // Titles are user-supplied strings...
MISC_DELEGATE_TITLE // Ask the delegate for titles.
See also: -tableScroll:border:slotTitle: (delegate method)
border:setSlotTitlesOn:
- (BOOL)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlotTitlesOn:(BOOL)on_off
Determines whether titles will be displayed or not. When on_off is YES, the titles will be displayed. When on_off is NO, the titles will not be displayed. The titles must be displayed to let the user resize and drag slots. See Slot Sizing in the introduction for more details.
border:setSlotTitlesSize:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setSlotTitlesSize:(float)size
For column titles, sets their height. For row titles, sets their width.
border:setUniformSizeSlots:
- (void)border:(MiscBorderType)b setUniformSizeSlots:(float)uniform_size
Sets or clears the uniform-size for a border. If uniform_size is zero, then each slot on that border will be able to have individually varying sizes. If uniform_size is non-zero, then every slot on that border will have the size, uniform_size. When the slots on a border have a uniform size, the user will not be able to resize the slots. See Slot Sizing in the introduction for more details.
border:slotAdjustedSize:
- (float)border:(MiscBorderType)b slotAdjustedSize:(int)slot
Returns the current display size of slot.
border:slotAtPosition:
- (int)border:(MiscBorderType)b slotAtPosition:(int)pos
Returns the original physical position of the slot in visual position pos. This is the visual-to-physical conversion routine.
See also: -border:moveSlotFrom:to:, -border:slotPosition:
border:slotCellPrototype:
- (id)border:(MiscBorderType)b slotCellPrototype:(int)slot
Returns the cell prototype for slot.
See also: -border:setSlot:cellPrototype:, -border:setSlot:cellType:

doGetISearchColumn:
- (BOOL)doGetISearchColumn:(int*)col
Built-in method to choose the incremental search column. Returns YES if incremental search should be enabled and sets *col to the physical index of the column that should be searched, otherwise returns NO. To enable incremental search via this function, autoSortRows must be YES; the first sorting column must be string-based (stringValue or title); and there cannot be a custom sort function for the column. This method works appropriately for normal tables, as long as autoSortRows is turned on. Whenever the user drags a string-based column to the first position, incremental search will be enabled. Non-sorting (skip) columns are ignored. You can override this behavior by implementing the -tableScroll:getISearchColumn: method in your delegate.

You are responsible for ensuring that the table is sorted in col order. This method runs a modal event loop, processing keystrokes and scrolling the table appropriately. Returns YES if col was acceptable and event was processed. Returns NO if col failed any of the tests mentioned.
See also: -incrementalSearch:, -tableScroll:getISearchColumn: (delegate method)
doRetireCell:atRow:column:
- (id)doRetireCell:(id)cell atRow:(int)row column:(int)col
This built-in implementation tries to recover storage before the cell is idled. An attempt is made to send the following messages to the cell in this order: -setTitle:@"", -setStringValue:@"". If the cell responds to a message, that message is sent, otherwise the next message is tried. Override this method in your subclass if you need to do different processing when cells are retired to the cache. Called from: -retireCell:atRow:column:. Returns cell.
doReviveCell:atRow:column:
- (id)doReviveCell:(id)cell atRow:(int)row column:(int)col
This method tries to reset the cell so that it will "useOwner..." values for font, textColor, backgroundColor, selectedTextColor, and selectedBackgroundColor. It tries to set the MiscTableScroll object as the owner of the cell. Then it tries to initialize the font, textColor, backgroundColor, selectedTextColor, and selectedBackgroundColor by first trying the "setOwner..." value method, and then trying the straight "set..." method if the cell does not respond to the "setOwner..." version. Override this method in your subclass if you need different behavior when a cell is brought into active service. Called from -reviveCell:atRow:column:. Returns cell.

Returns the value of sending a -doubleValue message to the cell at row, col. If the table is lazy, the delegate, and then the dataDelegate are given the opportunity to reply to the -tableScroll:doubleValueAtRow:column: message. This gives lazy tables an opportunity to return this information directly, without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. If the table is not lazy, or the delegate and dataDelegate do not respond to the -tableScroll:doubleValueAtRow:column: message, then the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -doubleValue message, that value is returned; otherwise, zero is returned.
See also: -cellAtRow:column:, -isLazy, -setLazy:, -tableScroll:doubleValueAtRow:column: (delegate method)

- (float)floatValueAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Returns the value of sending a -floatValue message to the cell at row, col. If the table is lazy, the delegate, and then the dataDelegate are given the opportunity to reply to the -tableScroll:floatValueAtRow:column: message. This gives lazy tables an opportunity to return this information directly, without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. If the table is not lazy, or the delegate and dataDelegate do not respond to the -tableScroll:doubleValueAtRow:column: message, then the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -floatValue message, that value is returned; otherwise, zero is returned.
See also: -cellAtRow:column:, -isLazy, -setLazy:, -tableScroll:floatValueAtRow:column: (delegate method)

This method is responsible for determining whether incremental searching should be enabled, and identifying the column on which the table is sorted. If the delegate responds to -tableScroll:getISearchColumn:, then it is called, otherwise, the dataDelegate is tried. If neither object responds, the built-in -doGetISearchColumn: method is called. Returns YES if incremental searching should be enabled, otherwise NO.
See also: -doGetISearchColumn:, -incrementalSearch:, -tableScroll:getISearchColumn: (delegate method)
getNext:editRow:column:
- (BOOL)getNext:(BOOL)forward editRow:(int*)row column:(int*)col
When forward is YES, this method returns the coordinates of the next cell that is editable. When forward is NO, this method returns the coordinates of the nearest previous cell that is editable. The search order is based on the visual order of slots in the MiscTableScroll. Normally this method is used by assigning the physical coordinates of the cell that is currently being edited to row and col. The method then searches for the next/previous cell that is editable and updates the values of row and col to the coordinates of the next/previous editable cell. This method is used in the -textDidEndEditing: method to find the next / previous cell when the user presses TAB / SHIFT-TAB to terminate cell editing. Returns YES if a new editable cell was found. Returns NO if there are no other editable cells.

If point is outside and left of the MiscTableScroll, or there are no columns, then col is set to -1. If point is outside and right of the MiscTableScroll, col is set to the last valid column index. Out of range values are handled similarly for row. Returns YES unless point was out of bounds, in which case NO is returned.
getRow:column:ofCell:
- (BOOL)getRow:(int*)row column:(int*)col ofCell:(NSCell*)cell
Finds the location of cell in the MiscTableScroll object. If cell is found, row and col are set to the coordinates of the cell in the table and the method returns YES. If cell is not found, row and col are set to -1, and the method returns NO.
getRow:column:ofCellWithTag:
- (BOOL)getRow:(int*)row column:(int*)col ofCellWithTag:(int)x

The function must return an integer value which is: (a) less than zero if slot1 should come before slot2, or (b) equal to zero if slot1 should sort equally with slot2, or (c) greater than zero if slot1 should come after slot2. This function is responsible for comparing the cells of the two slots in the order defined by the slotSortVector, or visual order if no explicit slotSortVector has been set. This function is also responsible for applying the sort direction to the individual cell-wise comparisons. This function is also responsible for calling user-installed custom slot sorting functions, or interpreting and applying the sort-type for slots that do not have a custom function. The default, built-in implementation of this function is MiscDefaultCompareSlotFunc.

sortInfoDone:
- (void)sortInfoDone:(MiscSlotSortInfo*)sortInfo
This method reclaims temporary storage held in the sortInfo structure. You must call this method whenever you are finished using a sortInfo object.
See also: -sortInfoInit:border:
sortInfoInit:border:
- (void)sortInfoInit:(MiscSlotSortInfo*)sortInfo border:(MiscBorderType)b
This method precomputes the sorting information needed by the sorting methods. If you call any of the sorting methods that accept an info: argument, you must initialize the sortInfo structure by calling this method first. After you have finished using the sortInfo structure, you must reclaim the storage by passing the sortInfo structure to -sortInfoDone:. NOTE: The sortInfo structure stores the current sorting information for the table. Any changes made to the sorting environment after the sortInfo structure has been initialized will not affect the contents of the sortInfo structure, and therefore will not affect comparisons made using the sortInfo structure. Actions that affect the sorting environment include: rearranging columns/rows, installing a slotSortVector, installing a custom slot comparison function, changing the sort-type or sort-direction of a slot. Actions which alter the structure of the "other" border (like removing columns/rows) can potentially cause catastrophic failures.

Returns the value of sending a -state message to the cell at row, col. If the table is lazy, the delegate, and then the dataDelegate are given the opportunity to reply to the -tableScroll:stateAtRow:column: message. This gives lazy tables an opportunity to return this information directly, without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. If the table is not lazy, or the delegate and dataDelegate do not respond to the -tableScroll:doubleValueAtRow:column: message, then the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -state message, that value is returned; otherwise, zero is returned.
See also: -cellAtRow:column:, -isLazy, -setLazy:, -state (NSButtonCell), -tableScroll:stateAtRow:column: (delegate method)
stringForNSStringPboardType
- (NSString*)stringForNSStringPboardType
Returns a string of the selected cells as ASCII text. Columns are separated by tab characters (ASCII decimal 9). Rows are terminated with newline characters (ASCII decimal 10). The text is retrieved from the cells by first trying the -title message. If the cell does not respond to the -title message, then the -stringValue message is tried. Each tab character in the text retrieved from the cell is replaced with a single space character (ASCII decimal 32) before the text is written to string. The selection is written in the current (visual) ordering. Called from -builtinStringForPboardType:, and -stringForNSTabularTextPBoardType. Override this method in your subclass if you want different behavior.
See also: -builtinStringForPboardType:, -stringForNSTabularTextPBoardType
stringForNSTabularTextPBoardType

stringValueAtRow:column:
- (NSString*)stringValueAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Returns the value of sending a -stringValue message to the cell at row, col. If the table is lazy, the delegate, and then the dataDelegate are given the opportunity to reply to the -tableScroll:stringValueAtRow:column: message. This gives lazy tables an opportunity to return this information directly, without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. If the table is not lazy, or the delegate and dataDelegate do not respond to the -tableScroll:doubleValueAtRow:column: message, then the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -stringValue message, that value is returned; otherwise, zero (a NULL pointer) is returned. NOTE: If you are using NSButtonCells, you probably want -titleAtRow:column:, not this method.
See also: -cellAtRow:column:, -isLazy, -setLazy:, -tableScroll:stringValueAtRow:column: (delegate method), -titleAtRow:column:
tag
- (int)tag

Returns the value of sending a -tag message to the cell at row, col. If the table is lazy, the delegate, and then the dataDelegate are given the opportunity to reply to the -tableScroll:tagAtRow:column: message. This gives lazy tables an opportunity to return this information directly, without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. If the table is not lazy, or the delegate and dataDelegate do not respond to the -tableScroll:doubleValueAtRow:column: message, then the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -tag message, that value is returned; otherwise, zero is returned.
See also: -cellAtRow:column:, -isLazy, -setLazy:, -tableScroll:tagAtRow:column: (delegate method)
target
- (id)target
Returns a pointer to the object which receives the action message on a single mouse-click event.
textColor
- (NSColor*)textColor
Returns the current textColor.
titleAtRow:column:
- (NSString*)titleAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Returns the value of sending a -title message to the cell at row, col. If the table is lazy, the delegate, and then the dataDelegate are given the opportunity to reply to the -tableScroll:titleAtRow:column: message. This gives lazy tables an opportunity to return this information directly, without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. If the table is not lazy, or the delegate and dataDelegate do not respond to the -tableScroll:titleAtRow:column: message, then the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -title message, that value is returned; otherwise, zero (a NULL pointer) is returned. NOTE: NSButtonCell implements the -stringValue message by formatting the integer value of its state as a string. To retrieve the text label displayed on the button, you must use the -title method.

See also: ± trackingBy
tracking
- (BOOL)tracking
Returns YES if the mouse is currently being tracked by a cell, else NO. Technically, this method returns YES after the cell which will track the mouse has been highlighted, and NO after it has been unhighlighted. The cell which is tracking the mouse can be accessed via -clickedCell, -clickedColumn, or -clickedRow. Although setting a Cell's highlight flag is sufficient during mouse tracking in eager-mode, it is not sufficient in lazy-mode. Therefore MiscTableScroll uses this method in lazy-mode to determine when a cell should be drawn highlighted. You should rarely need to call this method, though it might be useful in subclasses.

trackingBy
- (MiscBorderType)trackingBy
Returns the current orientation of keyboard tracking.
See also: ± trackBy:
uniformSizeColumns
- (float)uniformSizeColumns

Equivalent to: -uniformSizeSlots:MISC_COL_BORDER.
uniformSizeRows
- (float)uniformSizeRows
Returns the uniform size for rows. If rows are not being sized uniformly, this method will return zero. Any non-zero value indicates the size that all rows have the same size as the value returned by this method. Rows are uniformly sized by default. Equivalent to: -uniformSizeSlots:MISC_ROW_BORDER.

validRequestorForSendType:returnType:
- (id)validRequestorForSendType:(NSString*)t_send returnType:(NSString*)t_return
This method is called by the services system to update the services menu. If the delegate responds to the -tableScroll:validRequestorForSendType:returnType: message, it is sent to the delegate. If not, the dataDelegate is checked. If neither object responds, -builtinValidRequestorForSendType:returnType: is called. Override this method in your subclass if you need different behavior. Returns the result of the called method.

This method is responsible for writing data to the pasteboard. If the delegate responds to -tableScroll:writeSelectionToPasteboard:types:, the message is sent to the delegate. If not, the dataDelegate is tried. If neither object responds to the message, the default method, -builtinStringForPboardType:, is called. Called from -builtinWriteSelectionToPasteboard:types:. Override this method in your subclass if you want different behavior.

Methods Implemented by Cell Subclasses
tableScroll:retireAtRow:column:
- (id)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll retireAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
If neither the delegate nor the dataDelegate respond to -tableScroll:retireCell:atRow:column: then the MiscTableScroll tries sending this message to the cell itself to give it the opportunity to perform special handling when it is being retired from active use and returned to the cache. Must return self, or a suitable replacement object for storage in the cache.
See also: -retireCell:atRow:column:, -tableScroll:retireCell:atRow:column: (delegate method)
tableScroll:reviveAtRow:column:
- (id)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll reviveAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
If neither the delegate nor the dataDelegate respond to -tableScroll:reviveCell:atRow:column: then the MiscTableScroll tries sending this message to the cell itself to give it the opportunity to perform special handling when it is being brought into use for the first time, or is being retrieved from the cache for reuse.
See also: -reviveCell:AtRow:column:, -tableScroll:reviveCell:atRow:column: (delegate method)
Methods Implemented by the Delegate
tableScroll:abortEditAtRow:column:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll abortEditAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Notifies the delegate that a cell editing session has been aborted. This means that the normal -control:textShouldEndEditing: validation did not take place.
See also: Cell Editing (Introduction)
tableScroll:backgroundColorChangedTo:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll backgroundColorChangedTo:(NSColor*)newColor
This message is sent to the delegate and then the dataDelegate when the MiscTableScroll receives a -setBackgroundColor: message that actually changes the background color.
tableScroll:border:slotDraggedFrom:to:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll border:(MiscBorderType)b slotDraggedFrom:(int)from_pos to:(int)to_pos
Notifies the delegate whenever the user drags a slot to a new position.
tableScroll:border:slotPrototype:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll border:(MiscBorderType)b slotPrototype:(int)slot
Sent to the delegate whenever the MiscTableScroll object needs the prototype cell for a column which has the MISC_TABLE_CELL_CALLBACK cell type. If the delegate does not respond to the message, the dataDelegate is tried.
See also: -border:setSlot:cellType:
tableScroll:border:slotResized:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll border:(MiscBorderType)b slotResized:(int)n
Notifies the delegate whenever the user resizes a slot.
tableScroll:border:slotSortReversed:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll border:(MiscBorderType)b slotSortReversed:(int)n
Notifies the delegate whenever the user reverses the sort direction of a slot.
tableScroll:border:slotTitle:
- (NSString*)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll border:(MiscBorderType)b slotTitle:(int)slot
Sent to the delegate whenever the MiscTableScroll object needs a title for a border which has the MISC_DELEGATE_TITLE title mode. If the delegate does not respond to the message, the dataDelegate is tried.
See also: -border:setSlotTitleMode:
tableScrollBufferCount:
- (int)tableScrollBufferCount:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll
Gives the delegate and dataDelegate of a lazy-mode MiscTableScroll the opportunity to report the number of buffers used for each slot. This information can be used to optimize-away string copying during sorting. This is a micro- optimization for sorting lazy-mode tables based on string values.
Sorting retrieves the values of two cells from the same slot to compare them. In eager mode, it is sufficient to perform the comparison in a manner similar to this:
[[cell1 stringValue] isEqualToString:[cell2 stringValue]]
However, it is common for lazy-mode delegates to simply recycle a single cell to handle the -tableScroll:cellAtRow:column: message. In that case, the first value is no longer valid when the second value is retrieved, so the MiscTableScroll object needs to copy the first value before retrieving the second value. By default, the MiscTableScroll object makes the pessimistic (but safe) assumption that it needs to copy the first string value before retrieving the second string value. Sophisticated delegates can eliminate this copy operation if they provide at least two buffers for each slot, or if they implement the string retrieval methods (-tableScroll:stringValueAtRow:column: and/or -tableScroll:titleAtRow:column:) in a way that makes it possible to retrieve a second string value from the same slot without invalidating the previous string value retrieved from that slot.
If the value returned is greater than or equal to two (2), the string values will not be copied.
See also: -bufferCount
tableScroll:canEdit:atRow:column:
- (BOOL)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll canEdit:(NSEvent*)event atRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Gives the delegate the opportunity to decide whether or not an editing session should be started for the cell at row, col. This method is invoked from both a -mouseDown: event, in which case event is the mouse-down event itself, and also from keyboard events in which case event is 0. This message is sent both on single-click events and multi-click events. It is the responsibility of the delegate to decide whether or not editing should begin. If the delegate returns YES, an editing session will begin for the cell. If the delegate returns NO, no editing session will begin. This message is tested with the delegate, dataDelegate and the cell itself. The first object that responds to the message decides the outcome. If none of those objects respond to the message, the default behavior will allow editing only on a double-click or keyboard event, and only if the cell is both editable and enabled.
See also: Cell Editing (Introduction)
tableScroll:canWritePboardType:
- (BOOL)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll canWritePboardType:(NSString*)type
If the delegate responds to this message, the delegate has the opportunity to select which datatypes will be written to the pasteboard. If the delegate does not respond, the dataDelegate is given the opportunity.
See also: -canWritePboardType:
tableScroll:cellAtRow:column:
- (id)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll cellAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
If the table scroll is in lazy mode this message is sent first to the delegate and then to the dataDelegate (if delegate does not respond) whenever the cell at row, col is needed. You must implement this method in either the delegate or the dataDelegate whenever you use a MiscTableScroll in lazy mode. The table scroll does not manage the cells for itself in lazy mode; the delegate or the dataDelegate must.
See also: ± setLazy:, ± isLazy
tableScroll:changeFont:to:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll changeFont:(NSFont*)oldFont to:(NSFont*)newFont
This message is sent to the delegate and then the dataDelegate whenever a -changeFont: message is received and the new font is different than the current font. The NSFontManager sends the -changeFont: message whenever the user changes the font using either the Font Panel or the Font menu. This is distinguished from programmatic changes via the -setFont: method so that you can record user preferences. This notification message is sent after the font change has been applied, but before the new font is displayed.
See also: -changeFont:, -setFont:, -tableScroll:fontChangedFrom:to: (delegate method)
tableScroll:didEdit:atRow:column:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll didEdit:(BOOL)changed atRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Notifies the delegate that a cell-editing session terminated, and whether or not the value in the cell changed. This is a notification-only message. The delegate is not given any veto power at this point. Veto power is available in the -control:textShouldEndEditing: (NSControl) delegate message. This message is sent immediately after the -tableScroll:abortEdit:atRow:column: messages and the -tableScroll:setStringValue:atRow:column: messages, so this message is always sent in all cases when a cell editing session terminates.
See also: -tableScroll:willEditAtRow:column: (delegate method), Cell Editing (Introduction)
tableScroll:doubleValueAtRow:column:
- (double)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll doubleValueAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Lazy tables send this message to the delegate and then the dataDelegate to retrieve the value for -doubleValueAtRow:column:. If the delegate or dataDelegate respond to this message, that value is returned. If neither responds to the message, or if the table is not lazy, the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -doubleValue message, that value is returned; otherwise zero is returned. This method gives lazy tables the opportunity to provide the information content of cells without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. You should implement this method in your delegate or dataDelegate if you have any slots that contain double values.
See also: -cellAtRow:column:, -doubleValueAtRow:column:, -isLazy, -setLazy:
tableScroll:edit:atRow:column:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll edit:(NSEvent*)event atRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Gives the delegate the opportunity to control the cell editing session. This message is tested with the delegate, dataDelegate and cell itself. The first object that responds to the message is responsible for establishing an editing session for the cell. If none of these objects respond to this message, the MiscTableScroll object will establish an editing session with the cell using the normal NSCell methods. Event is either the mouse event that caused editing to begin, or 0 if editing was invoked from a keyboard event.
See also: Cell Editing (Introduction)
tableScroll:floatValueAtRow:column:
- (float)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll floatValueAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Lazy tables send this message to the delegate and then the dataDelegate to retrieve the value for -floatValueAtRow:column:. If the delegate or dataDelegate respond to this message, that value is returned. If neither responds to the message, or if the table is not lazy, the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -floatValue message, that value is returned; otherwise zero is returned. This method gives lazy tables the opportunity to provide the information content of cells without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. You should implement this method in your delegate or dataDelegate if you have any slots that contain float values.
See also: -cellAtRow:column:, -floatValueAtRow:column:, -isLazy, -setLazy:
tableScroll:fontChangedFrom:to:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll fontChangedFrom:(NSFont*)oldFont to:(NSFont*)newFont
This message is sent to the delegate and then the dataDelegate whenever a -setFont: message is received and the new font is different than the current font. This notification message is sent after all font changes, both user-initiated and programmatic. This message is sent after the font change has been applied, but before the new font is displayed.
See also: -changeFont:, -setFont:, -tableScroll:changeFont:to: (delegate method)
tableScroll:getISearchColumn:
- (BOOL)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll getISearchColumn:(int*)col
First the delegate and then the dataDelegate is tested for response to this message whenever a keystroke is received that could start incremental searching. If the delegate responds, the message is sent to the delegate. Otherwise, if the dataDelegate responds, the message is sent to the dataDelegate. Return YES if incremental searching should be enabled, and set *col to the physical index of the column that the table is sorted on, otherwise return NO. The delegates have the opportunity to decide whether or not incremental searching should be enabled, and indicate which column the table is sorted on. If you want to enable incremental searching and you do not use the auto-sort facilities, then you must implement this method to tell the MiscTableScroll object which column the table is sorted on. The table must be sorted in col order (ascending or descending). -doIncrementalSearch:column: calls [self border:MISC_COL_BORDER slotSortType:col] to determine the sort-type. The sort-type for col must be one of the string-based sort-types: MISC_SORT_STRING_CASE_INSENSITIVE, MISC_SORT_STRING_CASE_SENSITIVE, MISC_SORT_TITLE_CASE_INSENSITIVE or MISC_SORT_TITLE_CASE_SENSITIVE. Col must not have a custom sort function. You are responsible for ensuring that the table is sorted in col order. -doIncrementalSearch:column: calls [self border:MISC_COL_BORDER slotSortDirection:col] to determine the sort-direction. If the table is sorted in the other direction, use the complement of the column's physical index (~col).
See also: -doGetISearchColumn:, -doIncrementalSearch:column:, -getISearchColumn:, -incrementalSearch:
tableScroll:intValueAtRow:column:
- (int)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll intValueAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Lazy tables send this message to the delegate and then the dataDelegate to retrieve the value for -intValueAtRow:column:. If the delegate or dataDelegate respond to this message, that value is returned. If neither responds to the message, or if the table is not lazy, the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -intValue message, that value is returned; otherwise zero is returned. This method gives lazy tables the opportunity to provide the information content of cells without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. You should implement this method in your delegate or dataDelegate if you have any slots that contain int values.
See also: -cellAtRow:column:, -intValueAtRow:column:, -isLazy, -setLazy:
tableScroll:readSelectionFromPasteboard:
- (BOOL)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll readSelectionFromPasteboard:(id)pboard
If the delegate responds to this message, the delegate has the opportunity to take over the process of reading data from the pasteboard. If the delegate does not respond to this message, the dataDelegate is tried. The delegate should return YES if the data was successfully read from the pasteboard, else it should return NO.
See also: -readSelectionFromPasteboard:
tableScroll:retireCell:atRow:column:
- (id)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll retireCell:(id)cell atRow:(int)row column:(int)col
If the delegate responds to this message, the delegate has the opportunity to perform special handling of cells that are being retired to the cache. If the delegate does not respond, the dataDelegate is tried. If the dataDelegate does not respond either, the cell itself is tried (with -tableScroll:retireAtRow:column:). Must return cell, or a suitable replacement object for storage in the cache.
See also: -retireCell:atRow:column:
tableScroll:reviveCell:atRow:column:
- (id)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll reviveCell:(id)cell atRow:(int)row column:(int)col
If the delegate responds to this message, the delegate has the opportunity to perform special handling of cells that are being brought into use for the first time, or are being retrieved from the cache for reuse. If the delegate does not respond, the dataDelegate is tried. If the dataDelegate does not respond either, the cell itself is tried (with -tableScroll:reviveAtRow:column:).
See also: -reviveCell:atRow:column:
tableScroll:selectedBackgroundColorChangedTo:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll selectedBackgroundColorChangedTo:(NSColor*)newColor
This message is sent to the delegate and then the dataDelegate when the MiscTableScroll receives a -setSelectedBackgroundColor: message that actually changes the background color.
tableScroll:selectedTextColorChangedTo:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll selectedTextColorChangedTo:(NSColor*)newColor
This message is sent to the delegate and then the dataDelegate when the MiscTableScroll receives a -setSelectedTextColor: message that actually changes the background color.
tableScroll:setStringValue:atRow:column:
- (BOOL)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll setStringValue:(NSString*)s atRow:(int)row column:(int)col
This message is sent from within -textDidEndEditing: when a cell editing session has successfully finished (not aborted) and the string value for the cell was actually changed. This method provides the delegate with an after-the-fact veto option. If the delegate returns NO, then the MiscTableScroll object assumes that the change was rejected, and that the cell retains its previous contents. If the delegate returns YES, then the MiscTableScroll object assumes that the delegate stored the new string value into the appropriate cell, and that slot needs to have its sort position reevaluated. This method is optional for delegates of eager MiscTableScroll objects. This method is mandatory for delegates of lazy MiscTableScroll objects that allow cell editing. If the delegate implements this method, the delegate is responsible for setting the string value in the appropriate cell in the MiscTableScroll object.
See also: Cell Editing (Introduction)
tableScroll:stateAtRow:column:
- (int)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll stateAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Lazy tables send this message to the delegate and then the dataDelegate to retrieve the value for -stateAtRow:column:. If the delegate or dataDelegate respond to this message, that value is returned. If neither responds to the message, or if the table is not lazy, the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -state message, that value is returned; otherwise zero is returned. This method gives lazy tables the opportunity to provide the information content of cells without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. You should implement this method in your delegate or dataDelegate if you have any slots that contain state values.
See also: -cellAtRow:column:, -stateAtRow:column:, -isLazy, -setLazy:, -state (NSButtonCell)
tableScroll:stringValueAtRow:column:
- (NSString*)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll stringValueAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Lazy tables send this message to the delegate and then the dataDelegate to retrieve the value for -stringValueAtRow:column:.

If neither responds to the message, or if the table is not lazy, the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -tag message, that value is returned; otherwise zero is returned. This method gives lazy tables the opportunity to provide the information content of cells without the overhead of preparing and formatting a cell. You should implement this method in your delegate or dataDelegate if you have any slots that contain tag values.
See also: -cellAtRow:column:, -tagAtRow:column:, -isLazy, -setLazy:
tableScroll:textColorChangedTo:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll textColorChangedTo:(NSColor*)newColor

tableScroll:titleAtRow:column:
- (NSString*)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll titleAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Lazy tables send this message to the delegate and then the dataDelegate to retrieve the value for -titleAtRow:column:. If the delegate or dataDelegate respond to this message, that value is returned. If neither responds to the message, or if the table is not lazy, the cell is retrieved via -cellAtRow:column:. If the cell responds to the -title message, that value is returned; otherwise zero is returned.

tableScroll:validRequestorForSendType:returnType:
- (id)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll validRequestorForSendType:(NSString*)t_send returnType:(NSString*)t_return
If the delegate responds to this message, the delegate has the opportunity to interact with the services system using different combinations of send and return types than the MiscTableScroll object alone normally does. If the delegate does not respond, the dataDelegate is tried.
See also: -validRequestorForSendType:returnType:
tableScroll:willEditAtRow:column:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll willEditAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
Notifies the delegate that a cell editing session is about to start. This is a notification-only message. There is no veto option associated with this message. A veto option is provided with the -tableScroll:canEdit:atRow:column: message. This message, and its counterpart, -tableScroll:didEdit:atRow:column:, bracket cell editing sessions for delegates that want to perform extra operations before and after cell editing sessions without interfering with any of the begin/end decisions. This message is offered to the delegate, and then the dataDelegate if the delegate does not respond.
See also: -tableScroll:didEdit:atRow:column:, Cell Editing (Introduction)
tableScroll:writeSelectionToPasteboard:types:
- (BOOL)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll writeSelectionToPasteboard:(NSPasteboard*)pboard types:(NSArray*)types
If the delegate responds to this message, the delegate has the opportunity to completely take over the writing of data to the pasteboard. If the delegate does not respond, the dataDelegate is tried.
See also: -writeSelectionToPasteboard:types:
tableScrollRegisterServicesTypes:
- (void)tableScrollRegisterServicesTypes:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll
If the delegate responds to this message, the delegate has the opportunity to register different datatypes with the services system. If the delegate does not respond, the dataDelegate is tried.
See also: -registerServicesTypes:
Delegate Methods For Dragging Source Operations
tableScroll:allowDragOperationAtRow:column:
- (BOOL)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll allowDragOperationAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
This message is sent to the delegate or the dataDelegate if necessary by the MiscTableScroll to determine whether or not dragging an image from a cell should be allowed. The appropriate delegate should return YES if dragging the image from the cell at row and col is allowed, or NO if it is not.
tableScroll:draggingSourceOperationMaskForLocal:
- (NSDraggingOperation)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll draggingSourceOperationMaskForLocal:(BOOL)isLocal
This message is sent to the delegate or the dataDelegate if necessary in order to give the delegate a chance to respond to NSDraggingSource's -draggingSourceOperationMaskForLocal: method.
tableScrollIgnoreModifierKeysWhileDragging:
- (BOOL)tableScrollIgnoreModifierKeysWhileDragging:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll
This message is sent to the delegate or the dataDelegate if necessary in order to give the delegate a chance to respond to NSDraggingSource's -ignoreModifierKeysWhileDragging method.
tableScroll:imageForDragOperationAtRow:column:
- (NSImage*)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll imageForDragOperationAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
This message is sent to the delegate or the dataDelegate if necessary to give the delegate a chance to provide the image used for the dragging operation. This method is required for non-image cells. It is optional for image cells, in which case, if the delegate does not implement it or if it returns 0, then the image stored in the cell is used for dragging instead.
tableScroll:preparePasteboard:forDragOperationAtRow:column:
- (void)tableScroll:(MiscTableScroll*)scroll preparePasteboard:(NSPasteboard*)pb forDragOperationAtRow:(int)row column:(int)col
This message is sent to the delegate or the dataDelegate if necessary in order to have the NSPasteboard pb prepared for the dragging operation. The appropriate delegate must send a -declareTypes:num:owner: message to the NSPasteboard followed by appropriate -set...:forType: or -write... messages if needed. Extra precaution should be taken when declaring a non-null pasteboard owner as discussed in the Image Dragging section of this document.
