Member Function Documentation

- (void) lazyInit

A hook you can override to do some lazy initialization.

This is called last after any lazyInitWith(...) method is called.

- (void) lazyInitWithGD:

(id)

_gd

Lazy init this object with a GDDocument, or GDApplicationController.

This just sets the "gd" property.

Parameters:

_gd

A GDDocument or GDApplicationController.

- (void) showInView:

(NSView *)

view

Show this view inside of another view.

No frame adjustments are made.

- (void) showInView:		(NSView *)	view
withAdjustments:		(NSRect)	_adjust

A quick shortcut to show this view inside of another view, when you know that some minor adjustments need to be made.

This method looks like this:

 - (void) showInView:(NSView *) view withAdjustments:(NSRect) _adjust {
     NSRect newFrame=[view frame];
     newFrame.size.width+=_adjust.size.width;
     newFrame.size.width+=_adjust.size.height;
     newFrame.origin.x+=_adjust.origin.x;
     newFrame.origin.y+=_adjust.origin.y;
     [self setFrame:newFrame];
     [view addSubview:self];
 }

So you can use this to your advantage:

 [myView showInView:otherView withAdjustments:NSMakeRect(10,-5,-10,10)];
