I need to animate a view frame size adding 100px of height, but I need the window grow up simultaneously with the view.
I tried with this code :
//resize Window
NSRect winsize = [window frame];
winsize.size.height += 100;
[self.window setFrame:winsize display:YES animate:YES];
//resize View
NSRect viewsize = [myview frame];
viewsize.size.height += 100;
[[myview animator] setFrame:viewsize];
It works but I obtain an ugly effect, Window and View had some delay in resize. Thus, I get the Window frame resizing before than the View frame.
How can I modify my code to make them resizing simultaneously ?
add:
I found this answer but it tdoesn't seems to work for me:
Simultaneously modify window frame and view frame
I found a good solution: using autoresizingMask to mantain min and max Y Margin and allow height resize.
[myview setAutoresizingMask:NSViewHeightSizable];

I have two views and a button at the top, i want one be hidden/shown when the button is pressed and for the other views to resize to the edge of the window.
The button on the top left links to an IBAction that hides the lower view with this mainscroll.hidden = true. I can not figure out how to resize/move the other views so the textbox/button are at the bottom of the window, ie no visible gray space at the bottom. I would like to do this programmatically.

Here is how you can adjust the topView programmatically:
float aHeight = [mainscroll frame].size.height;
NSRect aRect = [topView frame];
aRect.size.height += aHeight;
aRect.origin.y -= aHeight;
[topView setFrame:aRect];
I have the following code:
[[ticketsListScrollView documentView] setFrame: NSMakeRect(0, 0, [ticketsListScrollView frame].size.width, 53 * [tickets count])];
[[ticketsListScrollView documentView] setFlipped:YES];
for(int i = 0; i < [tickets count]; i++) {
TicketsListViewController *viewController = [[TicketsListViewController alloc] initWithNibName:#"TicketsListViewController" bundle:nil];
viewController.dateLabelText = tickets[i][#"date"];
viewController.timeLabelText = tickets[i][#"time"];
viewController.subjectLabelText = tickets[i][#"title"];
NSRect frame = [[viewController view] frame];
frame.origin.y = frame.size.height * i;
[viewController view].frame = frame;
[[ticketsListScrollView documentView] addSubview:[viewController view]];
}
if the list is large enough (many views), the NSScrollView starts at top-left, which is great. For less views (the views do not take the whole documentView, then NSScrollView starts at the middle.
Any idea why?
Thank you!
Views are not flipped by default, which means your document view is being pinned to the lower-left corner (the default, non-flipped view origin) of the scroll view. What you're seeing is a view not tall enough to push the "top" subview to the top of the scroll view. I see you tried flipping this view, so you already know about this, but you're not doing it correctly.
I'm not sure why you're not getting an error or a warning when calling -setFlipped: since the isFlipped property is read-only. In your document view (the view that's scrolled, and in which you're placing all those subviews), you can override it:
- (BOOL)isFlipped {
return YES;
}
Of course you'll have to put this in a custom NSView subclass and set that as your scroll view's document view's class in IB if you're not creating it at runtime. You'll also need to adjust the frames you use for layout, since you're currently expressing them in the coordinate system of the scroll view's frame. You should be expressing them in your container/layout view's bounds coordinates, which will also be flipped, and so, likely different from your scroll view's coordinates. You'll also need to implement -intrinsicContentSize (and call -invalidateIntrinsicContentSize when adding/removing subviews) so auto-layout can size the container appropriately.
At the moment the behaviour of my app allows me to called this extra function I wrote that hacks resizes the window to fittingSize.
- (void)fitToMinimumSize
{
NSRect frame = [self frame];
frame.size = [[self contentView] fittingSize];
int originalHeight = [self frame].size.height;
int diff = originalHeight - frame.size.height;
frame.origin.y += diff;
[self setFrame:frame display:YES];
}
But can I automate this behaviour through some built in auto layout code so that the window is always the size of the minimum of it's contentView instead of this almighty hack?
Edit: I've found out I can check [[self contentView] fittingSize], but how can I observe this incase it changes, or should I be triggering it myself?
Normally, everything should already be 'automatic' if your layout is fully and unambiguously determined by NSConstraint's set on your window's content view and its children.
In your case I'd try installing a height and a width constraints on the content view with sufficiently small dimensions (maybe even zero), but with priority lower than the 'content compression resistance priority' set on your subviews. To have everything working properly, you may have to play with constraint priorities and/or install additional constraints on the content view's children.
This should work without any other code, as long as your subviews are constrained to resist collapsing to zero. I'd also think that in this case the window should not be user-resizeable.
I have a Cocoa window, whose content view contains an NSScrollView that, in turns, contains a fixed-size NSView.
Upon launching the program, the scroll bars displayed initially are too small, as if the content size was much larger than it actually is:
When I start playing with, e.g., the vertical scroll bar, and bring it back to the original position at the top, it gets resized to its expected size (which corresponds to the ratio of scroll view and content view sizes):
(Notice the horizontal bar, which still has incorrect size. If I then play with it, and bring it back to its leftmost position, it gets resized to the correct size.)
I also encountered the same problem, I have searched everywhere but it seems no one else experiences this problem. Fortunately I found a hack which solves the problem.
What I did notice was that when the window is resized or maximized the scrollbars resize to the expected size (autoresizing has to be enabled). This is because when the window resizes so does the scrollview and the length of the scroll bars gets recalculated and is calculated correctly. Possibly due to some bug the scroll bar lengths are not calculated correctly on initialization. Anyway to fix the problem, in your application delegate create an outlet to your window. Override the "applicationDidFinishLaunching" method and inside it call the method "frame" on the window outlet, which returns the current NSRect of the window. Using the returned value add one to the size.width and size.height. The call the method setFrame with display set to YES. This will resize the window and force the size of the scrollbars to be recalculated.
Here is the code for applicationDidFinishLaunching Below
(void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification
{
// Get the current rect
NSRect windowRect = [_window frame];`
// add one to the width and height to resize window
windowRect.size.width += 1;
windowRect.size.height += 1;
// resize window with display:YES to redraw window subviews
[_window setFrame:windowSize display:YES];
}
I encountered this issue when modifying an NSTextView textContainer size to toggle line wrapping. Resizing the enclosing view does cause the correct scroll view height to be used, however its a brutal solution.
NSScrollView supports -reflectScrolledClipView. Calling this directly in my case had no effect except when delayed on the runloop:
[textScrollView performSelector:#selector(reflectScrolledClipView:) withObject:textScrollView.contentView afterDelay:0];
The scroller position is correct but there is a scroller redraw. So it looks as if part of the view geometry is calculated when drawing. A better solution is therefore:
NSDisableScreenUpdates();
[textScrollView display];
[textScrollView reflectScrolledClipView:textScrollView.contentView];
[textScrollView display];
NSEnableScreenUpdates();
Building on the answer from jstuxx above, if you don't want the window to visibly resize, try:
NSRect windowRect = [[[self view] window] frame];
windowRect.size.width += 1;
windowRect.size.height += 1;
[[[self view] window] setFrame:windowRect display:YES];
windowRect.size.width -= 1;
windowRect.size.height -= 1;
[[[self view] window] setFrame:windowRect display:YES];
I had to put this code after where I was programmatically adding the scroll view to my interface.
I the issue I'm having has to do with the coordinate system in Cocoa but I really don't know. This is all happening in the top pane of a horizontal NSSplitView.
Very simply, I'm trying to position one NSBox right below a second one (I load custom views into the boxes - that all works fine). The top box's top-left corner is at the top-left corner of the pane and never changes. If the height of the top NSBox shrinks I want the top of the second NSBox to slide right up below it. Conversely, if the top NSBox's height increases I want the bottom NSBox to slide down.
This code gets called twice. Box is correct (first time top box, second time bottom box) and v is correct (this is the view I'm loading into the box - this works fine and it is what is causing the height to change in the top box).
NSSize destBoxSize = [[box contentView] frame].size; //the size of the box in the view to load the view into
NSSize newViewSize = [v frame].size; // the size of the view to be loaded
float deltaWidth = [horizSplitView frame].size.width - destBoxSize.width;
float deltaHeight = newViewSize.height - destBoxSize.height;
NSRect boxFrame = [box frame];
boxFrame.size.height += deltaHeight;
boxFrame.size.width += deltaWidth;
boxFrame.origin.y -= deltaHeight;
NSLog(#"vc=%# boxFrame x%f y%f h%f w%f", nibName, boxFrame.origin.x, boxFrame.origin.y, boxFrame.size.height, boxFrame.size.width);
// Clear the box for resizing
[box setContentView:nil];
[box setContentView:v];
[box setFrame:boxFrame];
What you want to do is not so hard, but it will need some subclassing. First of all, you need to subclass NSSplitView and either and override either -(void)init or -(void)awakeFromNib to add this line:
[self setAutoresizesSubviews:YES]; //
Then you need to subclass the two boxes and set their auto resizing masks, either in -(void)init or in - (void)viewWillMoveToSuperview:(NSView *)newSuperView.
For the first box you'll probably want:
[newInstance setAutoresizingMask:NSViewNotSizable];
For the second bbox you'll probably want:
[newInstance setAutoresizingMask:NSViewMinXMargin | NSViewMinYMargin];
See also NSView. It takes a bit of experimenting to get the right combination, but then it works quite nicely.
