I'm trying to add a new NSTextView to the last index in my collection view every time the attributed string exceeds a certain bounds. The code works perfectly until the 5th item then it starts its starts creating an item every time the enter button is pressed. I'm thinking its a bug but im not sure. if any one can show me a better way to do it or improve the current code I have I would appreciate it. Below is my code:
Here is the CollectionViewItem
class DocumentItem: NSCollectionViewItem {
var itemView: DocumentTextView?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
self.itemView?.wantsLayer = true
// Do view setup here.
}
override func loadView() {
self.itemView = DocumentTextView(frame: NSZeroRect)
self.view = self.itemView!
}
func getView() -> DocumentTextView {
return self.itemView!
}
}
Here is the collectionView datasource
func collectionView(_ collectionView: NSCollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return DocList.count
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: NSCollectionView, itemForRepresentedObjectAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> NSCollectionViewItem {
let item = collectionView.makeItem(withIdentifier: NSUserInterfaceItemIdentifier(rawValue: "DocumentItem"), for: indexPath)
return item
}
Here is the NSTextView subclass
class DocumentTextView: NSTextView {
var theContainer = NSTextContainer()
var theStorage = NSTextStorage()
var theManager = NSLayoutManager()
var table = NSTextTable()
var pdfPage: PDFPage?
override init(frame frameRect: NSRect) {
super.init(frame: NSRect(origin: frameRect.origin, size: NSSize(width: 800, height: 1131 )), textContainer: theContainer)
theStorage.addLayoutManager(theManager)
theManager.addTextContainer(theContainer)
self.textContainerInset = CGSize(width: 50, height: 50)
self.textContainer?.widthTracksTextView = true
self.textContainer?.heightTracksTextView = true
self.textContainer?.lineBreakMode = .byWordWrapping
self.maxSize = NSSize(width: 800, height: 1131)
self.backgroundColor = NSColor.fromHexString("ffffff")!
self.isRichText = true
}
required init?(coder: NSCoder) {
fatalError("init(coder:) has not been implemented")
}
}
Here is the function bringing the bug
func textDidChange(_ notification: Notification) {
var textView = notification.object as? DocumentTextView
let numberOfItems = theDocumentOutlineView.numberOfItems(inSection: 0)
let theLastTextView = theDocumentOutlineView.item(at: numberOfItems - 1) as! DocumentItem
if textView == theLastTextView.itemView {
print(textView?.attributedString().size())
if (textView?.attributedString().size().height)! >= 1106.0 {
self.DocList.append(2)
var set = Set<IndexPath>()
set.insert(NSIndexPath(forItem: self.DocList.count - 1 , inSection: 0) as IndexPath)
theDocumentOutlineView.insertItems(at: set)
theDocumentOutlineView.scrollToItems(at: set, scrollPosition: NSCollectionView.ScrollPosition.top)
var newFirstResponder = theDocumentOutlineView.item(at: self.DocList.count - 1) as! DocumentItem
newFirstResponder.itemView?.delegate = self
self.view.window?.makeFirstResponder(newFirstResponder.itemView)
}
}
}
Here's my test project, maybe it helps. The delegate of the text view is its view controller, the NSCollectionViewItem
. The view controller of the collection view also receives NSText.didChangeNotification
notifications to check the length of the text. heightTracksTextView
of the text container is false
.
ViewController:
class ViewController: NSViewController, NSCollectionViewDataSource, NSCollectionViewDelegate {
@IBOutlet weak var collectionView: NSCollectionView!
var docList: [DocumentObject] = [DocumentObject(index: 0, string: NSAttributedString(string: "New 0"))]
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
collectionView.register(DocumentItem.self, forItemWithIdentifier: NSUserInterfaceItemIdentifier("DocumentItem"))
NotificationCenter.default.addObserver(self, selector: #selector(textDidChange),
name: NSText.didChangeNotification, object: nil)
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: NSCollectionView, numberOfItemsInSection section: Int) -> Int {
return docList.count
}
func collectionView(_ collectionView: NSCollectionView, itemForRepresentedObjectAt indexPath: IndexPath) -> NSCollectionViewItem {
if let item = collectionView.makeItem(withIdentifier: NSUserInterfaceItemIdentifier("DocumentItem"),
for: indexPath) as? DocumentItem {
item.representedObject = docList[indexPath.item]
return item
}
return NSCollectionViewItem()
}
@objc func textDidChange(_ notification: Notification) {
if let textView = notification.object as? NSTextView {
if let theLastItem = self.collectionView.item(at: self.docList.count - 1) as? DocumentItem,
textView === theLastItem.itemView {
//if textView.attributedString().size().height >= 1106.0 {
print("\(textView.attributedString().size().height) \(textView.layoutManager!.usedRect(for: textView.textContainer!).size.height)")
if let textContainer = textView.textContainer,
let heigth = textView.layoutManager?.usedRect(for: textContainer).size.height,
heigth >= 1106.0 {
DispatchQueue.main.async {
if let window = self.view.window,
window.makeFirstResponder(nil) { // end editing of previous item
self.docList.append(DocumentObject(index: self.docList.count - 1, string: NSAttributedString(string: "New \(self.docList.count)")))
let set: Set = [IndexPath(item: self.docList.count - 1, section: 0)]
self.collectionView.insertItems(at: set)
self.collectionView.scrollToItems(at: set, scrollPosition: NSCollectionView.ScrollPosition.top)
if let newItem = self.collectionView.item(at: self.docList.count - 1) as? DocumentItem {
window.makeFirstResponder(newItem.itemView)
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
}
DocumentItem:
class DocumentItem: NSCollectionViewItem, NSTextViewDelegate {
var itemView: DocumentTextView?
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
// Do view setup here.
}
override func loadView() {
self.itemView = DocumentTextView(frame: NSZeroRect)
self.view = self.itemView!
self.itemView?.delegate = self
}
override var representedObject: Any? {
didSet {
if let item = representedObject as? DocumentObject {
itemView?.textStorage?.setAttributedString(item.string)
}
}
}
func textDidEndEditing(_ notification: Notification) {
if let item = representedObject as? DocumentObject {
item.string = itemView?.textStorage?.copy() as! NSAttributedString
}
}
}
DocumentObject:
class DocumentObject {
var index: Int
var string: NSAttributedString
init(index: Int, string: NSAttributedString) {
self.index = index
self.string = string
}
}
