Cocoa Keyboard Events - nextkeyview

1. Cocoa Keyboard Events

  1) Firstly, The view who forwards the event to the key window is pointed by a window outlet called "firstResponder".

  可以在interfacebuilder中，手动设置初始化nib时的firstResponder， 并可以通过连接nextKeyView来设置哪个控件为下一个Responder当使用"Tab"健后。 通常，当一个view重写了一个keyDown消息后，keyDown的消息将被该view拥有，也就是说，该view将在执行keyDown函数中的代码而不保留原来预想中的beha vior，在keyDown中一般使用   [self interpretKeyEvents:[NSArray arrayWithObject: event]],但是在一个customView中需要重写[responderInstance interpretKeyEvents:]中所有用到的函数，详细函数可以在xcode中查到。

  2)NSTrackingArea: An de style="font-size: 11px; font-family: Monaco, Courier, Consolas, monospace; ">NSTrackingAreade> object defines a region of view that generates mouse-tracking and cursor-update events when the mouse is over that region.

改类的解释没有什么可以多说的，就是在view上创建出一个矩形区域来响应一些进入，出去，光标变化等消息。注意，这个area是属于他的view的而不是他的窗口。

With de style="font-size: 11px; font-family: Monaco, Courier, Consolas, monospace; ">NSTrackingAreade>, you can configure the scope of activity for mouse tracking. There are four options:

• The tracking area is active only when the view is first responder.

• The tracking area is active when the view is in the key window.

• The tracking area is active when the application is active.

• The tracking area is active always (even when the application is inactive.

当添加了一个NSTrackingArea后 需要重写mouseEntered: 和mouseExited:这两个method以来设置自己需要做的事情.NSView当然也能remove这样一个area，[viewInstance removeTrackingArea:].
