This code compiles OK, but the ComboBox (cbxColors) is empty - not populated from the Data Source (array: COLORS_OF). Uses Data Source is checked in IB.
func numberOfItemsInComboBox() returns the correct result: 5.
func comboBox() is not doing its job.
What am I missing?
EDITED: Now working.
import Cocoa
#NSApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: NSObject, NSApplicationDelegate, NSComboBoxDelegate, NSComboBoxDataSource {
#IBOutlet weak var window: NSWindow!
func applicationDidFinishLaunching(aNotification: NSNotification) {
cbxColors.dataSource = self
numberOfItemsInComboBoxCell(cbxColors)
comboBoxCell(cbxColors, objectValueForItemAtIndex: 0)
}
func applicationWillTerminate(aNotification: NSNotification) {
}
#IBOutlet weak var cbxColors: NSComboBox!
#IBOutlet weak var txtResult: NSTextField!
#IBAction func actColors(sender: NSComboBox) {
// display User selected item in 'txtResult'
}
func numberOfItemsInComboBoxCell(aComboBox: NSComboBox) -> Int {
return(COLORS_OF.count)
}
func comboBoxCell(aComboBox: NSComboBox, objectValueForItemAtIndex index: Int) -> AnyObject {
return(COLORS_OF[index])
}
let COLORS_OF = [ "Blue", "Green", "Purple", "Red", "Yellow" ]
}
You probably forgot to check Uses Data Source or you have to delete datasource connection and reconnect it again (weird bug of Xcode).
Other then that if your outlets are correctly hooked your code works.

class CustViewController: NSViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var tableView: NSTableView!
#IBOutlet weak var statusLabel: NSTextField!
fileprivate var selectedOptionFromMenu = ""
#objc var contacts:[Person] = []
#objc var backUpContacts:[Person] = []
#IBAction func printCustomers(_ sender: Any?) {
I would like to call the printCustomers function from another class (NSWindowController). How is this coded in the NSWindowController class?
I tried the following:
let printAction = CustViewController.printCustomers(<#T##self: CustViewController##CustViewController#> )
but don't know how to code argument in this and this may be not be the way to do this?
I used an observer to notify when to run the code in the ViewController
The following is the code I used to accomplish this:
In the main WindowController
public let printNotification = Notification.Name("printNotification")
#IBAction func cashToMePrinting(_ sender: Any?) {
switch activeWindow {
case activeView.customerView:
let printCustNC = NotificationCenter.default
printCustNC.post(name: printNotification, object: nil)
default:
print()
}
}
Added the #IBAction to the responder chain using toolbar print item
Then in the ViewController I added:
#objc func reactToNotification(_ sender: Notification) {
// Do what you need, including updating IBOutlets
printCustomers(Any?.self)
}
I have a problem, I want to create a small app in which data in a formula can be charged.
Currently the data from three ViewControllers and one PickerViewController will be given back to the first ViewController.
That works very well too.
Now I want that the data at the start not on "nil" set but have a certain value.
Thereafter, the data entered last should reappear when the app is restarted.
I would like to apologize for my english, it is not my preferred language ...
Here is a part of my code how I wrote it
Main ViewController:
import UIKit
class RecivingViewController: UIViewController, SendDataBack, SendDataBack2, SendDataBack3, SendDataBack4 {
#IBOutlet weak var recivingData: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var recivingData2: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var recivingData3: UILabel!
#IBOutlet weak var recivingData4: UILabel!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
func userData(data: String) {
recivingData.text = data
}
func userData2(data: String) {
recivingData2.text = data
}
func userData3(data: String) {
recivingData3.text = data
}
func PickerData(data: String){
recivingData4.text = data
}
override func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
override func prepare(for segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: Any?) {
if segue.identifier == "view1" {
let SendingVC: SendingViewController = segue.destination as! SendingViewController
SendingVC.delegate = self
}
if segue.identifier == "view2" {
let SendingVC2: Sending2ViewController = segue.destination as! Sending2ViewController
SendingVC2.delegate = self
}
if segue.identifier == "view3" {
let SendingVC3: Sending3ViewController = segue.destination as! Sending3ViewController
SendingVC3.delegate = self
}
if segue.identifier == "picker" {
let SendingVC4: PickerViewController = segue.destination as! PickerViewController
SendingVC4.delegate = self
}
}
}
one of the other ViewControllers:
import UIKit
protocol SendDataBack {
func userData(data: String)
}
class SendingViewController: UIViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var DataTxt: UITextField!
var delegate: SendDataBack? = nil
#IBAction func done(_ sender: Any) {
if delegate != nil {
if DataTxt.text != nil {
let data = DataTxt.text
delegate?.userData(data: data!)
dismiss(animated: true, completion: nil)
}
}
}
In order to see data after app is restarted you should use user defaults.
For saving data
UserDefaults.standard.set(newValue, forKey: "data")
For loading data in your view controller, if it's first load, when data is nil
UserDefaults.standard.string(forKey: "data")
I'd like to pass string value from one NSTextField to another NSTextField pressing a button. I used for this for-in loop. I need to pass a value from inputField to visibleText1, then to visibleText2 and then to visibleText3. But it doesn't work.
import Cocoa
#NSApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: NSObject, NSApplicationDelegate {
#IBOutlet weak var window: NSWindow!
#IBOutlet weak var inputField: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var visibleText1: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var visibleText2: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var visibleText3: NSTextField!
func applicationDidFinishLaunching(aNotification: NSNotification) { }
func applicationWillTerminate(aNotification: NSNotification) { }
#IBAction func applyButton(sender: AnyObject) {
for u in (visibleText1.stringValue...visibleText3.stringValue) {
visibleText.stringValue[u] = inputField.stringValue
inputField.stringValue = ""
}
}
}
Xcode gives me an error:
// Type 'ClosedInterval<String>' does not conform to protocol 'SequenceType'
How how to do it right?
No you can't do that because you can't create a range of string values of different text fields.
You could make an array of the three fields and enumerate that:
#IBAction func applyButton(sender: AnyObject) {
for field in [visibleText1, visibleText2, visibleText3] {
field.stringValue = inputField.stringValue
}
inputField.stringValue = ""
}
or with the forEach function
#IBAction func applyButton(sender: AnyObject) {
[visibleText1, visibleText2, visibleText3].forEach {
$0.stringValue = inputField.stringValue
}
inputField.stringValue = ""
}
Resetting the inputField in the repeat loop would always apply an empty string after the first iteration.
There are several things wrong with this, but I will start with what will work:
import Cocoa
#NSApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: NSObject, NSApplicationDelegate {
#IBOutlet weak var window: NSWindow!
#IBOutlet weak var inputField: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var visibleText1: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var visibleText2: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var visibleText3: NSTextField!
func applicationDidFinishLaunching(aNotification: NSNotification) { }
func applicationWillTerminate(aNotification: NSNotification) { }
#IBAction func applyButton(sender: AnyObject) {
for u in [visibleText1, visibleText2, visibleText3] {
u.stringValue = inputField.stringValue
}
}
}
So what's wrong with the original?
1) Your (visibleText1.stringValue...visibleText3.stringValue) is of type String ... String, which is not what you intended. You need to have an array of NSTextFields.
2) visibleText.stringValue[u] is not even a thing. There is no variable visibleString, and even if it was an NSTextField - which I think is what you want it to be, it's .stringValue is a String, and not an array.
3) What are you doing setting inputField.stringValue = "" inside the for loop? If your construct worked, only the first field would be set.
4) Not an error, but why are you doing all of this inside NSApplicationDelegate, rather than a viewController?
I am working on a Mac OS X application with Swift.
This is my first time and I thought it would be the same as it is on iOS.
So I got this error (in the title) on this code:
import Cocoa
import AppKit
class LoginViewController: NSViewController {
#IBOutlet weak var emailTextField: NSTextField!
#IBOutlet weak var passwordTextField: NSSecureTextField!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do any additional setup after loading the view.
}
override func viewDidAppear() {
}
super.viewDidAppear()
if NSUserDefaults.standardUserDefaults().valueForKey("uid") != nil && CURRENT_USER!.authData != nil
{
self.logoutButton.hidden = false
}
}
func didReceiveMemoryWarning() {
super.didReceiveMemoryWarning()
// Dispose of any resources that can be recreated.
}
/*
// MARK: - Navigation
// In a storyboard-based application, you will often want to do a little preparation before navigation
override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSegue, sender: AnyObject?) {
// Get the new view controller using segue.destinationViewController.
// Pass the selected object to the new view controller.
}
*/
func loginAction(sender: AnyObject)
{
let email = self.emailTextField.text
let password = self.passwordTextField.text
...
}
}
What do I have to write instead of self?
Using self is correct. Try using the property stringValue instead of text.
Here is the code that worked for me:
#IBOutlet weak var emailTextField: NSTextField!
#IBAction func sendTapped(sender: AnyObject) {
let email = self.emailTextField.stringValue
print(email)
}
I have a problem with my buttons:
Buttons A and B look good with any connection (#IBOutlet):
Button B looks bad when is connected:
import Cocoa
class ButtonsC: NSViewController {
#IBOutlet var b: NSButton!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
}
and if I connect the button A, button B looks nice and A looks bad
import Cocoa
class ButtonsC: NSViewController {
#IBOutlet var a: NSButton!
#IBOutlet var b: NSButton!
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
}
}
How can I fix it? or what kind of code in my project may be causing that?
