    <p>I'm new to cocoa and I'm getting frustrated, I've spent almost half the day trying to find out how to add an NSView to a NSTableView cell, but I haven't found a nice guide that can help me do what I would like to achieve, maybe someone can have a look at what I've tried and tell me why it's not working and how I could get it to work...</p> <pre><code>-(NSView *)tableView:(NSTableView *)tableView viewForTableColumn:(NSTableColumn *)tableColumn row:(NSInteger)row{ NSTableCellView *view = [tableView makeViewWithIdentifier:@"MyView" owner:self]; NSTextField *textfield = [[NSTextField alloc]initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0, 0, 100, 30)]; [textfield setStringValue:predictate_search[row]]; [textfield setBackgroundColor:[NSColor redColor]]; [view addSubview:textfield]; [view setNeedsDisplay:YES]; return view; } </code></pre> <p>What I would like to achieve is to have two NSTextFields above each other and the table cell to have a custom background. The above is me just trying to get one NSTextField to work, but with no luck...</p> <p>The NSTableView is being created programmatically: </p> <pre><code>NSScrollView *scrollView = [[NSScrollView alloc]initWithFrame:bg]; [scrollView setHasVerticalScroller:YES]; [self addSubview:scrollView]; search_results = [[NSTableView alloc]initWithFrame:bg]; NSTableColumn *column = [[NSTableColumn alloc] initWithIdentifier:@"id"]; [[column headerCell] setStringValue:@"Cities"]; [column setWidth:1000.0]; [search_results addTableColumn:column]; [search_results setDelegate:(id)self]; [search_results setDataSource:(id)self]; [search_results reloadData]; [scrollView setDocumentView:search_results]; </code></pre> <p>I'm slightly confused what to put for the <code>makeViewWithIdentifier:</code>, I've watched the <a href="https://developer.apple.com/videos/wwdc/2011/" rel="noreferrer">WWDC 2011</a> video on NSTableViews but I'm still not really sure.</p> <p>If you require more information please ask</p> <p>Thanks</p> <p><strong>EDIT</strong> After first answer:</p> <pre><code>-(NSView *)tableView:(NSTableView *)tableView viewForTableColumn:(NSTableColumn *)tableColumn row:(NSInteger)row{ NSTableCellView *view = [tableView makeViewWithIdentifier:[tableColumn identifier] owner:self]; if(view == nil){ NSTableCellView *view = [[NSTableCellView alloc]initWithFrame:[tableView frame]]; view.identifier = [tableColumn identifier]; } NSTextField *textfield = [[NSTextField alloc]initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0, 0, 100, 30)]; [textfield setStringValue:predictate_search[row]]; [textfield setBackgroundColor:[NSColor redColor]]; [view addSubview:textfield]; [view setNeedsDisplay:YES]; return view; </code></pre> <p>}</p> <p>However it is still not working?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
