NSTextField doesnt change textColor

Hi.

I need change the text color of a NSTextField with method setTextColor: (NSColor*) color. But at GUI doesnt change it, internally does it but isnt visibility.
[[myTextField cell] setTextColorcolorWellSource color]];
[myTextField updateCell: [myTextField cell]];


If anybody can help, ill be grateful. Thx

Perhaps in your first line you should not be using [myTextField cell], but rather just myTextField. The setTextColor is not part of the NSControl class which is where the cell is coming from.

You might also have to say YES to setAllowsEditingTextAttributes:.

And if the updateCell: call isn't working, then perhaps try setNeedsDisplay:. I'd start by just commenting out that line.

Thx.

I tried from NSTextField class with just setTextColor and later display but isnt work.

I tried with NSCell cuz is the class whi has the setTextColor method...but nothing works...

Any other idea?? ANyway thx man

I was just playing around with this. I found I had to get the connections just right in Interface Builder. In my case, I associated the text outlet my delegate object and then the instructions worked.

In this case i dont have an IBOutlet associated, cuz its an grafical editor and i get the objects throught and IBAction (id) sender..

Sounds like you need to do some debugging. Start with proving the sender and the myTextField are non nil and are the same object.

Isnt nill cuz y loggin
NSLog(@"Color of Selected: %@",[myTextFiled colorText]);
and says the color with alpha and everything... and i asiggn it to the ColorWell and does good...
[colorWellSorce setColor: [myTextField colorText]];
and color well changes color propertly, but never the textField.

Not seeing the entire code makes it difficult to help. Good luck.

Srry, i cant cuz its of my job...thats the code im using,
