I've got a NSTextView in my view that works as it should, but when I show a NSAlert and close it, it becomes uneditable (with text still selectable). The NSAlert is a save/cancel alert that updates the textView's string when the user selects save, the string is not updated when the user presses cancel. In both cases the textView was uneditable, the alert is shown when the users has made changes and wants to change the tableView selection.
It feels like the textView refuses first responder but when breaking and checking in the console its "true", I also checked some other values after the view was uneditable:
Video, same when triggering the popup from a tableview selection change and a button : video
My popup code
func dialogOKCancel(question: String, text: String) -> Bool {
let myPopup: NSAlert = NSAlert()
myPopup.messageText = question
myPopup.informativeText = text
myPopup.alertStyle = NSAlertStyle.warning
myPopup.addButton(withTitle: "OK")
myPopup.addButton(withTitle: "Cancel")
return myPopup.runModal() == NSAlertFirstButtonReturn
}
let answer = self.dialogOKCancel(question: "Ok?", text: "Choose your answer.")
also tried:
let a = NSAlert()
a.messageText = "Delete the document?"
a.informativeText = "Are you sure you would like to delete the document?"
a.addButton(withTitle: "Delete")
a.addButton(withTitle: "Cancel")
a.alertStyle = NSAlertStyle.critical
a.beginSheetModal(for: self.view.window!, completionHandler: { (modalResponse) -> Void in
if modalResponse == NSAlertFirstButtonReturn {
print("Document deleted")
}
})
Stuff I tried:
I'm stuck on this for a long time and any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks
After long time of debugging, I found this line to be the one that broke the textfields, I will leave this post online in case someone else stumbles upon this weird problem
window?.styleMask = NSFullSizeContentViewWindowMask
removing this line fixed the problem.
