Setting Position of NSWindow before Display
- by Armin Ronacher
Right now I'm setting the position of a window that is about to open like this:
-(void) setActiveNodeDialog:(ISKNodeDialogController *)dialog
{
if (activeNodeDialog)
[[activeNodeDialog window] close];
activeNodeDialog = dialog;
if (activeNodeDialog) {
[activeNodeDialog setMainWindowController:self];
NSRect windowRect = [[self window] frame];
NSRect dialogRect = [[activeNodeDialog window] frame];
NSPoint pos;
pos.x = windowRect.origin.x + windowRect.size.width - dialogRect.size.width - 10;
pos.y = windowRect.origin.y + 32;
[[activeNodeDialog window] setFrameOrigin:pos];
[[activeNodeDialog window] makeKeyAndOrderFront:nil];
}
}
The problem with that is, that the window will "jump" when shown. And that even though I set the position before showing the window with "makeKeyAndOrderFront". The window is a NSPanel *. Anyone any ideas how to fix the jumping?
Setting the position in awakeFromNib is not an option because the main controller is set later.
