I want to close a alert Window (NSAlert) after specific period of time if user does not click on any of the buttons. Is there a way to set up a NSTimer to close the Alert Panel after some time, say 30 sec.
I just done something like that. I revised some of my codes for you here:
class ViewController: NSViewController {
var progressWindow:NSAlert!
func testOfProgressWindow() {
progressWindow = NSAlert()
progressWindow.alertStyle = .InformationalAlertStyle
progressWindow.messageText = "some notes"
let date = NSDate(timeInterval: 30, sinceDate: NSDate())
let uiUpdateTimer = NSTimer(fireDate: date, interval: 0, target: self, selector: "closeSheet", userInfo: nil, repeats: false)
let runLoop = NSRunLoop.mainRunLoop()
runLoop.addTimer(uiUpdateTimer, forMode: NSDefaultRunLoopMode)
progressWindow.beginSheetModalForWindow(self.view.window!, completionHandler: nil)
}
func closeSheet() {
self.view.window?.endSheet(self.progressWindow.window)
}
}
