Module widgets 

The native control behind each Nifty widget, and the objects that report its events.

Structs

MacWidget

Enums

WidgetKind 🔒

AppKit holds targets and delegates weakly, so each widget owns its own.

Constants

CARD_BORDER_WIDTH 🔒

CARD_CORNER_RADIUS 🔒

Matches the corner radius of macOS’s own grouped panels, such as System Settings’.

DIVIDER_SIZE 🔒

FULL_PROGRESS 🔒

A progress bar is full at this value.

MIN_TEXT_FIELD_WIDTH 🔒

Text fields have no useful natural width when empty, so they start at least this wide.

MIN_TRACK_WIDTH 🔒

Progress bars and sliders have no natural width, so they start at least this wide.

NO_ITEM 🔒

The index that selects no item of a pop-up button.

TEXT_AREA_INSET 🔒

The space between a text area’s border and its text, in points.

Functions

behind_window 🔒

A translucent material that shows the desktop through the window and dims with the window when it is inactive.

border_on_hover 🔒

Draws no bezel until the pointer is over the button, as toolbar buttons do.

click_button 🔒

A push button that tells target when it is clicked.

panel 🔒

A plain filled box. NSBox resolves its colors when it draws, so it follows dark mode and accessibility contrast without being told.

release_after_event 🔒

Hands the object to the run loop’s autorelease pool, which drains after each event.

show_title_beside 🔒

Gives an icon-only button its title as its tooltip and what screen readers say. The button itself keeps no title: setting one on an image-only button once it is shown makes AppKit draw it over the image.

system_font 🔒

text_alignment 🔒

AppKit has a natural alignment but no opposite of it, so the end follows the direction.

text_area_size 🔒

A text area’s natural size: the text field’s least width, and lines lines of its font inside its inset and border.

text_color 🔒
