macOS Save Cocoa Window

[john903]

How do you save the position and size of the window in a Cocoa app so the window is the same after you close and open the program?

That ought to do it, if not the other topics in that guide should get you there.

Yes, I found that one but I don't understand how to obtain a pointer to an NSWindow. I'm new to Cocoa.

Also, what method would I put this code in?

Thanks for your help!

If the window is from a nib you can set a "Frame Name" in IB3's inspector (first panel) or auto save name in older IB I believe, and Cocoa will automatically save the size/position info to the preferences file when the window is closed.

Thanks Sayer. That worked!
