Availability Bindings
editable
A multiple-value binding that determines if the NSSearchField is editable in the user interface.
When editable is bound, a new binding, editable2, is exposed and can be bound. Binding to editable2 causes editable3 to be exposed, and so on.
The contents of the NSSearchField are editable if a logical AND operation on all the editable bindings results in a Boolean value of YES.
enabled
A multiple-value binding that determines if the NSSearchField 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 NSSearchField 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 NSSearchField 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 NSSearchField 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 NSSearchField.
If font is bound, all other Font category bindings are disabled.
fontBold
A Boolean value that determines if the NSFont used to display the NSSearchField 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 NSSearchField.
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 NSSearchField 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 NSSearchField. 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 NSSearchField.
If fontSize is bound, the font binding is disabled.
Parameters Bindings
alignment
An integer value that specifies the alignment of the content displayed in the NSSearchField.
A value of 0 indicates that the content is left aligned, 1 that it is centered, and 2 that is it right aligned.
toolTip
An NSString that contains the tool tip to display for this NSSearchField.
Search Bindings
predicate
The multiple-value predicate binding allows you to create a search field pop-up menu that is pre populated with menu items that correspond to predicate filters. Each of the predicate bindings correspond to an entry in the search field pop-up menu. See “Predicate Binding” for further information.
When predicate is bound, a new binding, predicate2, is exposed and can be bound. Binding to predicate2 causes predicate3 to be exposed, and so on.
If predicate is bound, the recentSearches binding is not available.
recentSearches
An indexed collection containing a list of the recent search strings to be displayed in the menu of the NSSearchField
The indexed collection is an NSArray instance or subclass, or a property that is accessible using the key-value-coding indexed accessor methods.
Text Color Bindings
textColor
An NSColor that specifies the color used to display the text of the NSSearchField.
Value Bindings
value
An NSString or NSNumber that is displayed as the content of the NSSearchField.
