addSubview(subview as NSViewMBS, positioned as integer, relativeToView as NSViewMBS)

NSViewMBS.addSubview(subview as NSViewMBS, positioned as integer, relativeToView as NSViewMBS)
method, Cocoa, MBS Real Studio CocoaBase Plugin (NSView), class NSViewMBS,
Plugin version: 12.0, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: Inserts a view among the receiver's subviews so it's displayed immediately above or below another view.
Example:

// create a button
dim n as new NSButtonMBS(100, 100, 50, 24)

n.bezelStyle = n.NSRoundedBezelStyle
n.Title = "Test"

// add directly to window's super view, below the content view
// so it is behind all RB controls
window1.NSWindowMBS.contentView.superview.addSubview n, NSWindowMBS.NSWindowBelow, window1.NSWindowMBS.contentView

Notes:
subView: The view object to add to the receiver as a subview.
positioned: A constant specifying the position of the aView relative to otherView. Valid values are NSWindowAbove or NSWindowBelow.
relativeToView: The other view subView is to be positioned relative to. If relativeToView is nil (or isn't a subview of the receiver), subView is added above or below all of its new siblings.

This method also sets the receiver as the next responder of aView.

Function: the opacity of the view.
Example:

// makes a checkbox half transparent on Cocoa target:
CheckBox1.NSViewMBS.alphaValue = 0.5

Notes:
This method returns the value of the opacity property of the view's layer. Possible values are between 0.0 (transparent) and 1.0 (opaque). The default is 1.0.

Sending this message to a view that is not managing a Core Animation layer causes an exception.

property, Cocoa, MBS Real Studio CocoaBase Plugin (NSView), class NSViewMBS,
Plugin version: 8.4, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: The receiver's autoresizing mask, which determines how it's resized by the resizeWithOldSuperviewSize method.
Notes:
If the autoresizing mask is equal to NSViewNotSizable (that is, if none of the options are set), then the receiver doesn't resize at all in resizeWithOldSuperviewSize.

NSViewNotSizable = 0	The receiver cannot be resized.
NSViewMinXMargin = 1	The left margin between the receiver and its superview is flexible.
NSViewWidthSizable = 2	The receiver's width is flexible.

NSViewMBS.beginDraggingSessionWithItems(items() as NSDraggingItemMBS, e as NSEventMBS, source as NSViewMBS) as NSDraggingSessionMBS
method, Cocoa, MBS Real Studio CocoaBase Plugin (NSView), class NSViewMBS,
Plugin version: 13.1, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: Initiates a dragging session with a group of dragging items.
Notes:
items: The dragging items. The frame property of each NSDraggingItem must be in the view's coordinate system.
event: The mouse-down event object from which to initiate the drag operation. In particular, its mouse location is used for the offset of the icon being dragged.
source: An object that serves as the controller of the dragging operation. It must conform to the NSDraggingSource informal protocol and is typically the receiver itself or its NSWindow object.

Returns the dragging session for the drag.

A basic drag starts by calling beginDraggingSessionWithItems.

The caller can take the returned NSDraggingSession and continue to modify its properties such as slidesBackOnCancelOrFail. When the drag actually starts, the source is sent a draggingSessionWillBeginAtPoint message followed by multiple draggingSessionMovedToPoint messages as the user drags.

Once the drag is ended or cancelled, the source receives a draggingSessionEndedAtPoint:operation and the drag is complete.

Available in OS X v10.7 and later.

NSViewMBS.bounds as NSRectMBS

Function: Returns whether the receiver can become key view.
Notes: Returns true if the receiver can become key view, false otherwise.

NSViewMBS.canDraw as boolean
method, Cocoa, MBS Real Studio CocoaBase Plugin (NSView), class NSViewMBS,
Plugin version: 9.6, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: Returns true if drawing commands will produce any result, false otherwise.
Notes:
Use this method when invoking a draw method directly along with lockFocus and unlockFocus, bypassing the display... methods (which test drawing ability and perform locking for you). If this method returns false, you shouldn't invoke lockFocus or perform any drawing.

A view object can draw on-screen if it is not hidden, it is attached to a view hierarchy in a window (NSWindow), and the window has a corresponding window device. A view object can draw during printing if it is a descendant of the view being printed.

To draw into a NSView, use either CustomNSViewMBS class with drawRect event or NSGraphicsMBS class.

Plugin version: 12.3, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: Draws the focus ring mask for the view.
Notes:
This method provides the shape of the focus ring mask by drawing the focus ring mask. An implementation of this method should draw in the view's interior (bounds) coordinate space, that the focus ring style has been set (it will be set it to NSFocusRingOnly to capture the focus ring itself), and that the fill and stroke colors have been set to an arbitrary fully opaque color.

Subclasses that find the default behavior insufficient should only draw the focus ring shape.

The NSView implementation of this method simply fills self.bounds.
Available in Mac OS X v10.7 and later.

NSViewMBS.enclosingMenuItem as variant
method, Cocoa, MBS Real Studio CocoaBase Plugin (NSView), class NSViewMBS,
Plugin version: 11.2, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: Returns the menu item containing the receiver or any of its superviews in the view hierarchy.
Notes:
Returns the menu item containing the receiver or any of its superviews in the view hierarchy, or nil if the receiver's view hierarchy is not in a menu item

Plugin version: 11.1, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: Returns the nearest ancestor NSScrollView object containing the receiver (not including the receiver itself); otherwise returns nil.
Notes:
Declared as a variant to reduce plugin dependencies.
Please assign to a NSScrollViewMBS variable.

NSViewMBS.focusRingMaskBounds as NSRectMBS
method, Cocoa, MBS Real Studio CocoaBase Plugin (NSView), class NSViewMBS,
Plugin version: 12.3, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: Returns the focus ring mask bounds.
Notes:
Returns a rectangle containing the mask in the view's interior (bounds) coordinate space.

The mask bounds allows the focus ring's overall size and position to be determined before it is drawn.
Subclasses must override this method if they require the display of a focus ring.
The NSView implementation of this method simply returns NSZeroRect.

Note: The information provided by focusRingMaskBounds will enable Accessibility to identify selected subelements for zoom tracking, so it is important that this method provide a reasonably tight bounding box and that noteFocusRingMaskChanged is invoked as described.

NSViewMBS.focusRingType as Integer
property, Cocoa, MBS Real Studio CocoaBase Plugin (NSView), class NSViewMBS,
Plugin version: 8.4, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: The type of focus ring to be drawn around the receiver.
Notes:
This method only sets the desired focus ring type and does not cause the view to draw the actual focus ring. You are responsible for drawing the focus ring in your view's drawRect method whenever your view is made the first responder.

possible values:

NSFocusRingTypeDefault	0
NSFocusRingTypeNone	1
NSFocusRingTypeExterior	2

MsgBox str(n.frameRotation)
(Read and Write computed property)

NSViewMBS.identifier as string
property, Cocoa, MBS Real Studio CocoaBase Plugin (NSView), class NSViewMBS,
Plugin version: 13.2, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: A string that identifies this user interface item.
Notes:
It should be set to a unique value on NSViews when they are intended to be used inside a view-based NSTableView. Identifiers should be unique per-window. For programmatically created user interface items, you would typically set this value in code after creating a control but before adding it to a window. You may also want to set an identifier on a window, after creating it programmatically, to identify the window easily when it is reopened. You should not change the identifier after a control is added to a window. Identifiers beginning with an underscore are reserved for the system. In framework classes that implement this protocol, the accessor methods are not intended to be overridden.

To help avoid collision of identifiers, it is recommended that identifiers use the same prefix as is used for the framework or application. For example, identifiers for standard AppKit interface items, such as the open panel, will begin with "NS".

The slash '/', backslash '\', and colon ':' characters are reserved and should not be used in identifiers.

Function: True if the nsview or any of its ancestors has ever set a FrameRotation or BoundsRotation properties; otherwise returns false.

NSViewMBS.isRotatedOrScaledFromBase as Boolean
method, Cocoa, MBS Real Studio CocoaBase Plugin (NSView), class NSViewMBS,
Plugin version: 7.7, Mac: Yes, Win: No, Linux: No, Console & Web: Yes, Feedback.

Function: True if the nsview or any of its ancestors has ever had a nonzero frame or bounds rotation, or has been scaled from the window's base coordinate system; otherwise returns false.
Notes: The intent of this information is to optimize drawing and coordinate calculation, not necessarily to reflect the exact state of the receiver's coordinate system, so it may not reflect the actual rotation or scaling. For example, if an NSView object is rotated to 45 degrees and later back to 0, this method still returns true.
