Parameters Bindings
Value Selection Bindings
Availability Bindings
enabled
A multiple-value binding that determines if the NSMatrix is enabled in the user interface.
When enabled is bound, a new binding, enabled2, is exposed and can be bound. Binding to enabled2 causes enabled3 to be exposed, and so on.
The NSMatrix is enabled if a logical AND operation on all the enabled bindings results in a Boolean value of YES.
hidden
A multiple-value binding that determines if the NSMatrix is displayed in the user interface.
When hidden is bound, a new binding, hidden2, is exposed and can be bound. Binding to hidden2 causes hidden3 to be exposed, and so on.
The NSMatrix is hidden if a logical OR operation on all the hidden bindings results in a Boolean value of YES.
Font Bindings
font
An NSFont used to display the NSMatrix.
If font is bound, all other Font category bindings are disabled.
fontBold
A Boolean value that determines if the NSFont used to display the NSMatrix is bold. If fontBold evaluates to YES, the bold attribute is added to the font.
If fontBold is bound, the font and fontName bindings are disabled.
fontFamilyName
An NSString that specifies the family name of the NSFont used to display the contents of the NSMatrix.
If fontFamilyName is bound to a key, the font and fontName bindings are disabled.
fontItalic
A Boolean value that determines if the NSFont used to display the NSMatrix is italic. If fontItalic evaluates to YES, the italic attribute is added to the font.
If fontItalic is bound, the font and fontName bindings are disabled.
fontName
An NSString that specifies the full name of the NSFont that is used to display the contents of the NSMatrix. The full font name includes the family and the style of the font — for example, "Helvetica-Bold".
If fontName bound to a key, the font, fontBold, fontFamilyName and fontItalic bindings are disabled.
fontSize
An integer value that determines the size, in points, of the font used to display the NSMatrix.
If fontSize is bound, the font binding is disabled.
Parameters Bindings
toolTip
An NSString that contains the tool tip to display for this NSMatrix.
Value Selection Bindings
content
An NSArrayController instance that provides the content of the NSMatrix.
Unless contentValues is also bound, the titles of the items in the NSMatrix are derived by invoking description for each of the content objects.
contentObjects
An array of objects that are returned by selectedObject or selectedObjects in place of the corresponding content object.
If content is not bound, the contentObjects binding is not available.
contentValues
An array of strings that are displayed as the items in the NSMatrix.
selectedIndex
An integer value that specifies the index of the selected item in the NSMatrix. When the selection changes in the NSMatrix, this value is updated with the index of the newly selected item.
selectedObject
An object that specifies the item that is selected in the NSMatrix. This is the object in the content that corresponds to the currently selected item.
The selectedObject binding is only available when the content binding is bound.
selectedTag
An integer value that specifies the tag of the selected item in the NSMatrix. When the selection changes in the NSMatrix, this value is updated with the tag of the newly selected item.
selectedValue
An NSString that specifies the title of the selected item in the NSMatrix.
