This is another-problem. in view mode; [Up]
Date: Sun 03-Aug-1989 18:09:08 From: Unknown Subject: another problem. Here is another problem I encountered. I creatd a cell(myCell) of class ButtonCell and: [MyCell setType:NX_SWITCH]; I then used this prototype to creat a matrix(with mode NX_LISTMODE). The problem is the cell in the matrix won't redraw itself when clicked! However, if I change the matrix mode to NX_RADIO, it works fine. So if I use NX_LISTMODE, I have to setup something in the target of the matrix and seticon to switch or switchH manually to show the status. What a pain!! Now is the NX_LISTMODE designed to be like this? Or there are some tricks I am missing? Any comment?! --yufeng tsui@silver.bacs.indiana.edu >From: jgreely@oz.cis.ohio-state.edu (J Greely)

The big internal difference between list and radio modes are that radio allows the cell to track the mouse while list does not. a ButtonCell set to NX_SWITCH, from your description, appearently needs to track the mouse to switch its state and redraw. Is it flipping its state and not redrawing? Or is it neither flipping its state nor redrawing. If it actually switching the state, which I doubt, then a [myMatrix display]; should fix your problem. You may be able to fix your problem by fiddling with the changeXXX and lightsByXXX fields of your buttonCell. Michael Rutman Softmed >From: barry@zaphod.uchicago.edu (Barry Merriman)
