设置新创建的窗口Cocoa / Applescript的来源

Question

I'm trying to create new window with given origin in Cocoa/AppleScript type application.

I have Main NIB with main window and another one called hud . With button in main window I open new window (hud) in that way: set winn to NSWindowController's alloc()'s initWithWindowNibName_("hud") winn's showWindow_("jkb") The window is showing up.

I want to show it in different location on the screen but without any luck. I have tried every combination of those two:

set myOrigin to {x:330,y:330} or set myOrigin to {330,330}

with every line listed below:

current application's winn's class "NSWindow"'s class "NSView"'s setFrameOrigin_(mySize) --class "NSView" of class "NSWindow" of winn doesn't understand the “setFrameOrigin_” message

current application's winn's NSWindow's setFrameOrigin_(myOrigin) --NSWindow of winn doesn't understand the “setFrameOrigin_” message

current application's winn's class "NSView"'s setFrameOrigin_(myOrigin) --class "NSView" of winn doesn't understand the “setFrameOrigin_” message

current application's winn's jkb's class "NSView"'s setFrameOrigin_(myOrigin) --class "NSView" of jkb of winn doesn't understand the “setFrameOrigin_” message

current application's jkb's class "NSView"'s setFrameOrigin_(myOrigin) --class "NSView" of jkb doesn't understand the “setFrameOrigin_” message

current application's jkb's NSView's setFrameOrigin_(myOrigin) --NSView of jkb doesn't understand the “setFrameOrigin_” message

current application's jkb's class "NSView"'s setFrameOrigin_(myOrigin) --class "NSView" of jkb doesn't understand the “setFrameOrigin_” message

winn's jkb's class "NSView"'s setFrameOrigin_(myOrigin) --this class is not key value coding-compliant for the key jkb.

when I check through log ... frame I see objects so why do they not respond to setFrameOrgin_() ?

Answer 1

Two ways to go about this:

1. Through IB:

2. Programatically:

Subclass NSWindowController and set the origin in windowDidLoad: with window setFrame:

Answer 2

This works in my app:

theWindow's setFrameTopLeftPoint:{60,460}

where theWindow is an instance of NSWindow (retrieved from the window controller)

Remember that {0,0} is the left,bottom of the main screen for this method.

Finally I solved the problem. In hud nib I bind the window to a property hudWindow: missing value in a new, different script than main delegate. In this script I have created another method awakeFromNib() . When it is called I finally can point to the right object ( hudWindow ) and set its parameters. Thank you
