NSTableView get what cell is being edited with keyboard

Question

When I click with the mouse I can get the cell position with myTableView.clickedRow and myTableView.clickedColumn .

However if I click on the first cell and then I press "Tab" key on my keyboard, the selection will stay on row = 0 and column = 0 .

Is there a way to track the row and column index when changing cell with keyboard ?

Answer 1

When a text field in a cell is focused then the first responder is the field editor of the text field. Use row(for:) and column(for:) of NSTableView to get the row and column.

if let view = window.firstResponder as? NSView {
    let column = tableView.column(for: view)
    let row = tableView.row(for: view)
}
