A while ago I had asked next about this: > I am trying to built a pallete object like a button view which will accept an icon draged from the File Viewer. On my example I started with the Acceptor App and made it to accept the icon when I drop it in the inspectorWindow as opposed to the appIcon window (by slightly changing the appDidInit). > > Now I need to make it show up in the iconView only when I drop it there (in iconView) and NOT in the inspectorWindow in general.So my problem is to get the view to be the "sensitive" area and NOT the window which includes the view iconView. > > Can you PLEASE point me to some answers, (or examples) ? I am familiar with both the NeXT Answers 497 and 517 > NeXT indicated that this could be done much cleaner in 3.0 ! Well, I waited till I got 3.0 and now I cann't find any example or place in the on-line Docs that this is given some explanation ! Does anybody out there can help ?? I would greatly appreciate any pointers. Anxiously waiting for any answers --john m. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ |Dr.John Michopoulos (yanni)| Tel: (202) 767-2165 or -2189 | | Research Scientist | Fax: (202) 404-7176 | | Naval Research Laboratory | e-mail: yiannis@prologos.nrl.navy.mil | | Code 6380 | michopoulos@ccf3.nrl.navy.mil | | 4555 Overlook Avenue, S.W.| michopoulos@anvil.nrl.navy.mil | | Washington DC 20375-5000 | send NeXTmail to prologos.nrl.navy.mil | ------------------------------------------------------------------------ | A glimpse of a dream: Let's build rational amplifiers to move facts | | swiftly and massively so instead of crafstmen we become artists of | | research and discovery in both the physical and the conceptual worlds.| | Dreams are facts in the conceptual world anyway. | ------------------------------------------------------------------------
