NSResponderMBS.mouseUp(e as NSEventMBS)

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 9.6 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Informs the receiver that the user has released the left mouse button.

The default implementation simply passes this message to the next responder.

NSResponderMBS.moveBackward

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 8.4 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Implemented by subclasses to move the selection or insertion point one element or character backward.

In text, if there is a selection it should be deselected, and the insertion point should be placed at the beginning of the former selection. NSResponder declares but doesn't implement this method.

NSResponderMBS.moveBackwardAndModifySelection

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 8.4 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Implemented by subclasses to expand or reduce either end of the selection backward by one element or character.

If the end being modified is the backward end, this method expands the selection; if the end being modified is the forward end, it reduces the selection. The first moveBackwardAndModifySelection: or moveForwardAndModifySelection: method in a series determines the end being modified by always expanding. Hence, this method results in the backward end becoming the mobile one if invoked first. By default, moveLeftAndModifySelection: is bound to the left arrow key.

NSResponder declares but doesn't implement this method.

NSResponderMBS.moveDown

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 8.4 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Implemented by subclasses to move the selection or insertion point one element or character down.

NSResponderMBS.moveDownAndModifySelection

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 8.4 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Implemented by subclasses to expand or reduce the top or bottom end of the selection downward by one element, character, or line (whichever is appropriate for text direction).

If the end being modified is the bottom, this method expands the selection; if the end being modified is the top, it reduces the selection. The first moveDownAndModifySelection: or moveUpAndModifySelection: method in a series determines the end being modified by always expanding. Hence, this method results in the bottom end becoming the mobile one if invoked first.

NSResponder declares but doesn't implement this method.

NSResponderMBS.moveForward

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 8.4 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Implemented by subclasses to move the selection or insertion point one element or character forward.

NSResponderMBS.moveForwardAndModifySelection

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 8.4 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Implemented by subclasses to expand or reduce either end of the selection forward by one element or character.

If the end being modified is the backward end, this method reduces the selection; if the end being modified is the forward end, it expands the selection. The first moveBackwardAndModifySelection: or moveForwardAndModifySelection: method in a series determines the end being modified by always expanding. Hence, this method results in the forward end becoming the mobile one if invoked first. By default, moveRightAndModifySelection: is bound to the right arrow key.

NSResponder declares but doesn't implement this method.

NSResponderMBS.moveLeft

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 8.4 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS

NSResponderMBS.moveLeftAndModifySelection

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 8.4 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Implemented by subclasses to expand or reduce either end of the selection to the left (display order) by one element or character.

If the end being modified is the left end, this method expands the selection; if the end being modified is the right end, it reduces the selection. The first moveLeftAndModifySelection: or moveRightAndModifySelection: method in a series determines the end being modified by always expanding. Hence, this method results in the left end becoming the mobile one if invoked first. By default, this method is bound to the left arrow key.

NSResponder declares but doesn't implement this method.

The essential difference between this method and the corresponding moveBackwardAndModifySelection: is that the latter method moves in logical order, which can differ in bidirectional text, whereas this method moves in display order.

NSResponderMBS.performMnemonic(theString as string) as boolean

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 9.6 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Overridden by subclasses to handle a mnemonic.

If the character code or codes in theString match the receiver's mnemonic, the receiver should perform the mnemonic and return true. The default implementation does nothing and returns false. Mnemonics are not supported in Mac OS X.

NSResponderMBS.presentError(e as NSErrorMBS) as boolean

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 13.2 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Presents an error alert to the user as an application-modal dialog.

e: An object containing information about an error.

The alert displays information found in the NSError object e; this information can include error description, recovery suggestion, failure reason, and button titles (all localized). The method returns true if error recovery succeeded and false otherwise. For error recovery to be attempted, an recovery-attempter object (that is, an object conforming to the NSErrorRecoveryAttempting informal protocol) must be associated with e.

The default implementation of this method sends willPresentError to self. By doing this, NSResponder gives subclasses an opportunity to customize error presentation. It then forwards the message, passing any customized error object, to the next responder; if there is no next responder, it passes the error object to NSApp, which displays a document-modal error alert. When the user dismisses the alert, any recovery attempter associated with the error object is given a chance to recover from the error. See the class description for the precise route up the responder chain (plus document and controller objects) this message might travel.

Available in OS X v10.4 and later.

NSResponderMBS.rightMouseDown(e as NSEventMBS)

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 9.6 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ✅ Yes Desktop & iOS
Informs the receiver that the user has pressed the right mouse button.

The default implementation simply passes this message to the next responder.
