Question

How do you get the row for a button in a view based table when you click the button? The row is not selected when the button is clicked, but I found that if you log sender.superview.superview in the button’s action method, I get: NSTableRowView: 0x1001b3a90 – row: 2. So, the row is there in the log, but I don’t know how to get at it programmatically. I have the button’s action method in a subclass of NSTableCellView.

-[NSTableView rowForView:] says this in its documentation:

This is typically needed in the action method for an NSButton (or NSControl) to find out what row (and column) the action should be performed on.
