Jon SterlingThere are so many rough edges in Cocoa, but when you know the secret way to do something, it is very nice.For example, if you bind the table columns to a key path into an array controller, you can get away with not implementing NSTableViewDelegate and providing cell views yourself.... EXCEPT that <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a> provides cell views in which the text field is vertically misaligned. So this basic functionality, which probably worked correctly a long time ago, cannot be used and you must implement your own views.There's a lot of stuff like that... Broken windows (no pun intended). It makes me kind of sad to see it neglected in that way.

Jon SterlingSo today I spent the day learning how to create a Mail.app-style layout in <a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a> programmatically, using Cocoa Bindings, NSTreeController, NSArrayController, etc. My sample code is here: <a href="https://git.sr.ht/~jonsterling/cocoa-bindings-template" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://git.sr.ht/~jonsterling/cocoa-bindings-template</a>This seems to work correctly on macOS Sequoia, with the "correct" interaction between the source list scrollview and the window toolbar area. I have to wait until I get home to test this on Tahoe, where I had before been having trouble with the sidebar not receiving the correct "edge effect".

Jon Sterling<a href="https://mathstodon.xyz/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a> developers on macOS Tahoe: have you had any difficulties getting the "scroll edge effect" to apply? I have a split view with a source list on the left, and when I scroll the content under the window border, there is no blur at all. /cc <a href="https://mastodon.social/@marioguzman" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@marioguzman</a> <a href="https://infosec.exchange/@pasi" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@pasi</a>

Mario Alberto GuzmánI wonder why they decided to do the glass platters for the inspector sidebar and not just the free-standing glyphs like they did for the regular sidebar... hmmm...<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LiquidGlass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LiquidGlass</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a>

Mario Alberto GuzmánOkay, I think I figured it out. I can add a Visual Effect View that sits at the top of the window outside the safe area insets to give a nice blur to the map's content as to not interfere with the toolbar's titles and button titles (if shown).But the visual effect has a gradient mask to avoid a hard-stop at the bottom.It's so visually busy as now content flows behind the sidebar and the inspector and the toolbar should be translucent.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LiquidGlass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LiquidGlass</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a>

Mario Alberto GuzmánHoly shit, I think it was the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a> team who fixed this but they fixed it for <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a>!Basically, SwiftUI wouldn't persist the state of UI like scroll position when switching between tabs etc etc... and still doesn't. So I made a SwiftUI hosting view for NSTabViewController complete with NSToolbar.Inside each TabView, I use SwiftUI again where each is a sidebar with a detailed view on the right. In macOS Sequoia, this would crash when switching tabs!I think I might be unblocked now!

Mario Alberto GuzmánDespite all these changes I am making for <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a>, I'm still able to easily support back to macOS 13.0 Ventura. It's sorta fun how different it all looks now... still not liking Tahoe though. Too busy.I don't care that it looks "cool" -- "cool" doesn't help with usability.

Mario Alberto Guzmán...continued. Will say it doesn't look muted enough when the app is backgrounded. :/ <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WWDC25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WWDC25</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LiquidGlass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LiquidGlass</a>

Mario Alberto GuzmánUpdated my <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a> app a bit more:Got rid of NSSplitView that housed the Map & TableView (only drawback is now the user cannot resize anymore).This (along with the new automaticallyAdjustsSafeAreaInsets API) allowed for the Map to go under the sidebars not just for the areas above the TableView but all around it.The TableView now floats over it with a 40% height.But now content goes under both sidebars like it does in Apple Music. Hate it but ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WWDC25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WWDC25</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LiquidGlass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LiquidGlass</a>

Mario Alberto Guzmán😅 even I think my own app is hella ugly with this new design... lol I really don't want to publish this.(I need to figure out why those labels aren't drawing their backgrounds in the sidebar)I also don't know if I am supposed to get like a fade effect on the sidebar's bottom bar using the new NSSplitViewItemAccessoryViewController API.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LiquidGlass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LiquidGlass</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a>

Mario Alberto GuzmánI am using the new NSSplitViewItemAccessoryViewController in <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a> and pinning it to the bottom of my sidebar.Why did I assume I would get that view that has the fade when content scrolls behind it like the top part of the scroll view under the toolbar?Hmmm... Inspecting it looks like it adds a visual effect view somewhere in the hierarchy.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/WWDC25" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#WWDC25</a>

Mario Alberto GuzmánI am *sure* this is a bug or oversight and not an actual design decision here...But now that you can apply a tint color to glass buttons in the toolbar, if you do, their contrast with the glyph is so bad when the window is backgrounded.Look at the Green search toolbar button in these two screenshots.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LiquidGlass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LiquidGlass</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a>

Mario Alberto GuzmánThis area here, outlined in green, can be used to drag around the window. If your pointer is here, you also cannot swipe to scroll because technically there is a toolbar here (except it is now invisible in Tahoe).This is the most confusing UI I have ever seen.<a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppleMusic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppleMusic</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/LiquidGlass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LiquidGlass</a>

Florian HeidenreichAdded- Increase visual distinction between enabled and disabled NSComboBox (FB18899135)On previous versions of macOS, the control changed its background color to a lighter tone, indicating its disabled state. Now, there is no change in background color, making the control appear like it’s enabled.Actually, the only change seems to be that the color is removed from the down arrow, which is really hard to grasp. <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/macOSTahoe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#macOSTahoe</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/AppKit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AppKit</a>
