NSViewMBS.RenderImage(subviews as boolean = false, flipped as boolean = false) as variant

Var n as new NSProgressIndicatorMBS
n.sizeToFit

Var image as NSImageMBS = n.RenderImage
Var pic as Picture = image.CopyPicture

Backdrop = pic

May return nil on any error.
The value of this variant must be an object of class NSImageMBS.

Added flipped parameter for version 20.3.
Flipped was true for older versions.

Some examples using this method:

• /MacFrameworks/Cocoa Controls/Custom NSView

NSViewMBS.replaceSubview(oldView as NSViewMBS, newView as NSViewMBS)

oldView: The view to be replaced by newView. May not be nil.
newView: The view to replace oldView. May not be nil.

This method does nothing if oldView is not a subview of the receiver.
Neither oldView nor newView may be nil, and the behavior is undefined if either of these parameters is nil.

NSViewMBS.rotateByAngle(angle as Double)

angle: A float value specifying the angle of rotation, in degrees.

See the BoundsRotation property description for more information. This method neither redisplays the receiver nor marks it as needing display. You must do this yourself with display or NeedsDisplay.

This method posts an NSViewBoundsDidChangeNotification to the default notification center if the receiver is configured to do so.

NSViewMBS.scaleUnitSquareToSize(size as NSSizeMBS)

For example, a newUnitSize of (0.5, 1.0) causes the receiver's horizontal coordinates to be halved, in turn doubling the width of its bounds rectangle. Note that scaling is performed from the origin of the coordinate system, (0.0, 0.0), not the origin of the bounds rectangle; as a result, both the origin and size of the bounds rectangle are changed. The frame rectangle remains unchanged.

This method neither redisplays the receiver nor marks it as needing display. You must do this yourself with display or setNeedsDisplay.

This method posts an NSViewBoundsDidChangeNotification to the default notification center if the receiver is configured to do so.

Some examples using this method:

• /MacControls/TextEdit MBS
• /MacFrameworks/IKImageBrowser/IKImageBrowser Groups
• /MacFrameworks/IKImageBrowser/IKImageBrowser Scroll

NSViewMBS.Screenshot as Picture

Like ScreenshotWindowMBS, but only for the view you are interested in, e.g. a map.
Returns nil on failure like out of memory.

NSViewMBS.scrollPoint(x as double, y as double)   New in 24.5

x/y: The point in the view to scroll to.

NSViewMBS.scrollRectToVisible(rect as NSRectMBS) as Boolean   New in 24.5

The rectangle to be made visible in the clip view.
Returns true if any scrolling is performed; otherwise returns false.

NSViewMBS.setBackgroundFilters(Filters() as variant)

This property contains an array of CIFilterMBS objects. This array represents the background filters stored in the backgroundFilters 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.setContentFilters(Filters() as variant)

NSViewMBS.subviews(recursive as boolean = false) as NSViewMBS()

The order of the subviews may be considered as being back-to-front, but this does not imply invalidation and drawing behavior. The order is based on the order of the receiver's subviews as specified in the nib file from which they were unarchived or the programmatic interface for modifying the receiver's subview list. This ordering is also the reverse of the order in which hit-testing is done.

If recursive is true, we include all subviews of all subviews. (new in 14.2)

Some examples using this method:

• /MacBase/Custom NSWindows/NSWindow with Pattern/Pattern NSWindow
• /MacCocoa/Background view over titlebar
• /MacCocoa/Text in titlebar
