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_() ?
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
