I want hyperlinks in the tooltips of my OSX application, which then link to the Help Book in various places. Is this possible?
No, a tooltip is always placed next to the mouse with no possibility to click on it. But I guess you could achieve the look of a hyperlink by using NSAttributedString, although I'm not sure if the tooltips render them correctly.

I have included the colorbox css and js and it works when I click any image. However, I don't see any button/control on the overlay. It is only the image with dark overlay behind it. What could be going wrong here?
I am doing this in k15t Scroll Viewport for Confluence.
I tried changing the default script values but even that didn't help. Am I supposed to add the controls manually? I don't think so.
I would like to see the default close button along with slideshow effect, etc. that colorbox offers.
I figured it out. Though dumb but still. The default colorbox images (button icons) folder was residing at a location different from where colorbox expected it. So now, I can see the close button at least.
What still remains is - though I have set the colorbox properties right, I still don't see the previous and next buttons on a page with multiple images. What am I missing? It should have shown up by default...
Thank you.
I'm referring to the Safari 8's tabbar control (which looks almost exactly the same with Xcode 6's tabbar + the horizontal scrolling, if I'm not mistaken)
Is it available somewhere? How do I proceed?
P.S.: If the answer is something along the lines of "It's a custom control. But you can do it very easily by subclassing... everything there is to subclass", I'm prepared for it! lol
It is a custom control: ScrollableTabBarView. You can inspect it using F-Script
The closest visual match is the Yosemite style of MMTabBarView. This control however does not implement scrolling.
Also check out LITabControl and KPCTabsControl
It is just a Segmented / Tab bar with customized Radio buttons with added NSButton(this is for closing the tab).
You could check this using Accessibility Inspector.
And there is no straightforward control to achieve this, as you mentioned in P.S., you should go with customizing the controls.
I want to make a dynamic animated slider with symbols that contain clickable actions vs a slider image only approach. I would like to use a "next" button and a "back" button that will scroll multiple background images that contain clickable links. I can produce a basic image slider with the back and next buttons, but this approach is limited. Any help on how I can do this in Edge Animate CC will be very appreciated.
I was looking for a very simple slideshow a while ago. Came up with this here:
http://jquery.malsup.com/cycle/
If you want your Slides to contain any clickable items you will be able to simply add them to the sides div. Just set the picture as a background image in CSS and you are free to develop any clickable items infront.
Here is another tutorial that worked fine for me: http://line25.com/tutorials/build-a-simple-image-slideshow-with-jquery-cycle
To me this is easy to understand and if you are used to jQuery at least a little bit this here will work out fine for you.
I'm using a NSTextView with an NSAttributedString to display some links using the NSLinkAttributeName. I'm styling those links using the setLinkTextAttributes: method of NSTextView. However, I would like to give the user a visual feedback when he clicks the link, for example by changing the color of the link while the user pressed down the left mouse button. Is there an easy way to do that or do I have to use NSTextAttachment?
I don't think there is an easy way to do this if you want it to happen on the mouseDown event. If you can wait until the click is completed, then you can do it using the text view delegate method, textView:clickedOnLink:atIndex: to get the index of the clicked on link. You could then use that index to pass to the text storage method, attributesAtIndex:effectiveRange: to get the range of the link and finally, use setAttributes:range: to make whatever changes you want to the attributes of the link.
If you really need to do it on the mouseDown, then you'll have to subclass the text view and override mouseDown and maybe use something like characterIndexForPoint: to find out whether you've clicked on a link and respond as above.
I'm working with Xcode doing a Ipad app.
i simply want user to click anywhere on screen (not counting text fields) to perform some IBAction.I'm using an invisible button that covers my whole view.
Since I have some text fields in my view,i need to add this invisible button to the background of my user interface. I cant seem to find this option in the button attributes? any help?
Just set the button's type to custom.
Did you try setting the opacity of the button to zero?
I guess i got your point. You just want to put the UIButton(invisible) on the back of all the UITextField. The simple solution to this is open the Document Window in the IB. Now expand the view tree in the list view. Just drag your UIButton above the UITextFields and set the alpha value for the button in the property to be zero.
Hope this helps!!
iPad users don't "click". They "tap" or "touch".
In Interface Builder, I believe views are constructed with a z-index from top to bottom as they appear in the document window, so dragging your button so that it appears as the first subview of your main view should be a quick fix for this.
Have you considered other approaches? This doesn't sound like standard behaviour for an app and will probably cause havoc with anybody using Voice Over. What are you trying to accomplish?
