NSViewMBS.compositingFilter as variant

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
property Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 18.4 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ❌ No Desktop only
The Core Image filter used to composite the view’s contents with its background.

This property contains the compositing filter stored in the compositingFilter property of the view’s layer. If the view does not have a layer, setting the value of this property has no effect.
The default value of this property is nil, which causes content to be rendered without any special compositing effects.

We use variant here to reduce plugin dependencies. Please use with variant containing CIFilterMBS.

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 18.4 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ❌ No Desktop only
An array of Core Image filters to apply to the contents of the view and its sublayers.

This property contains an array of CIFilterMBS objects. This array represents the filters stored in the filters property of the view’s layer. If the view does not have a layer, setting the value of this property has no effect.
The default value of this property is an empty array.

We use variant here to reduce plugin dependencies. Please use with array of variants containing CIFilterMBS.

NSViewMBS.convertPointFromView(point as NSPointMBS, View as NSViewMBS) as NSPointMBS

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 10.3 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ❌ No Desktop only
Converts a point from the coordinate system of a given view to that of the receiver.

point: A point specifying a location in the coordinate system of aView.
View: The view with aPoint in its coordinate system. If View is nil, this method instead converts from window base coordinates. Otherwise, both View and the receiver must belong to the same NSWindow object.

Returns the point converted to the coordinate system of the receiver.

Some examples using this method:

NSViewMBS.convertPointToView(point as NSPointMBS, View as NSViewMBS) as NSPointMBS

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 10.3 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ❌ No Desktop only
Converts a point from the receiver's coordinate system to that of a given view.

point: A point specifying a location in the coordinate system of the receiver.
View: The view into whose coordinate system point is to be converted. If View is nil, this method instead converts to window base coordinates. Otherwise, both View and the receiver must belong to the same NSWindow object.

Returns the point converted to the coordinate system of View.

method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 10.3 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ❌ No Desktop only
Converts a rectangle from the coordinate system of another view to that of the receiver.

rect: The rectangle in aView's coordinate system.
view: The view with aRect in its coordinate system. If view is nil, this method instead converts from window base coordinates. Otherwise, both view and the receiver must belong to the same NSWindow object.

Returns the converted rectangle.

NSViewMBS.convertSizeFromView(Size as NSSizeMBS, View as NSViewMBS) as NSSizeMBS

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 10.3 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ❌ No Desktop only
Converts a size from another view's coordinate system to that of the receiver.

Size: The size (width and height) in aView's coordinate system.
View: The view with Size in its coordinate system. If View is nil, this method instead converts from window base coordinates. Otherwise, both View and the receiver must belong to the same NSWindow object.

Returns the converted size, as an NSSize structure.

NSViewMBS.convertSizeToView(Size as NSSizeMBS, View as NSViewMBS) as NSSizeMBS

Type Topic Plugin Version macOS Windows Linux iOS Targets
method Cocoa MBS MacBase Plugin 10.3 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ❌ No Desktop only
Converts a size from the receiver's coordinate system to that of another view.

Size: The size (width and height) in the receiver's coordinate system.
View: The view that is the target of the conversion operation. If View is nil, this method instead converts from window base coordinates. Otherwise, both View and the receiver must belong to the same NSWindow object.
