Multi Column Text Window Cocoa Swift NSTextView

492 views Asked by At

I want to display text in multiple columns in OS X using Cocoa.

NSTextView works well for one column, but which approach should I choose to handle multiple columns?

Any advice or hint is welcome...

Thanks

When it comes to rendering text, NSTextView can be considered the tip of the Cocoa Text Architecture iceberg - it's the bit you see, but there's a whole lot more going on under the surface. A multiple column layout is achieved by customizing some of these less-visible components. The link mentioned above talks specifically about how to do this in the Common Configurations section.
