I'm making a macOS app at the moment, and I'm trying to support printing. I've added NSBox to represent the pages I want to print inside an NSScrollView, so the hierarchy looks like this
NSScrollView
|- NSDocumentView
|- NSBox
|- NSBox
In the ViewController, when the user clicks on print, I run the following code
let printOperation = NSPrintOperation(view: self.previewView, printInfo: printInfo)
if let window = self.view.window {
printOperation.runModal(for: window, delegate: self, didRun: #selector(PrintPreviewViewController.printOperationDidRun(_:success:contextInfo:)), contextInfo: nil)
}
In the NSDocumentView subclass, I've implemented
override func knowsPageRange(_ range: NSRangePointer) -> Bool {
var numberOfPages = 0
for i in 0..<pages.count {
numberOfPages += pages[i].count
}
range.pointee.location = 1
range.pointee.length = numberOfPages
return true
}
override func rectForPage(_ page: Int) -> NSRect {
var pageNumber = 1
for i in 0..<pages.count {
for j in 0..<pages[i].count {
if pageNumber == page {
return pages[i][j].frame
}
pageNumber += 1
}
}
return NSRect(x: 0, y: 0, width: 300, height: 300)
}
When I run, I see the print sheet that all looks correct.
But when I finally confirm print, I get these errors in the console, and a blank sheet.
CGContextGetCTM: invalid context 0x0
CGContextTranslateCTM: invalid context 0x0
I don't know what this means, as everything is displayed correctly inside the NSScrollView, and even the print preview. I tried to narrow down the issue, I tried making a blank project with just one NSBox inside an NSScrollView, and I was having the same issue. I tried changing the size of NSRect bering returned in rectForPage(), but nothing works. I'm out of ideas.
Thank you all in advance.
