Does an NSOutlineView have built-in autoscrolling when the mouse is moved to the beginning or end of the NSOutlineView during a drag operation? As plan B I would create a tracking area at the top and bottom and trigger the scrolling while the mouse is over it - but a built-in solution would make more sense if available.
Can someone give me a hint here?
Thanks!

Using Spotlight, the currently available shortcuts of the Shortcuts app can be displayed and opened/started under macOS 12. Since I would like to display a list of available shortcuts in my application, I wonder how this could be realized.
Using NSMetadataQuery and the corresponding NSPredicate Spotlight can be accessed and searched. Files, directories and various other information can be requested from Spotlight this way, but I can't find a suitable search filter to give me the available shortcuts.
Does anyone here have any ideas?

I'm trying to fade in a popover on the docktile of my app. The whole thing should work like this: when a user clicks on the Dock icon, a popover appears above the Dock icon. The DockTile that belongs to the app is determined with NSApplication.shared.dockTile and I can also catch the click on the DockTile with applicationShouldHandleReopen. The view needed to display a popup is an NSImage which represents the ContentView of the DockTile.import Cocoa
import Foundation
let applicationDelegate = NSApplication.shared.delegate as! AppDelegate
@NSApplicationMain
class AppDelegate: NSObject, NSApplicationDelegate {
let appDockTile = NSApplication.shared.dockTile
let popover = NSPopover()
func applicationDidFinishLaunching(_ aNotification: Notification) {
let dockIcon = NSImage(named: "AppIcon")
appDockTile.contentView = NSImageView(image: dockIcon!)
appDockTile.display()
popover.behavior = .transient
popover.resignFirstResponder()
}
func applicationShouldHandleReopen(_ sender: NSApplication, hasVisibleWindows flag: Bool) -> Bool {
popover.show(relativeTo: appDockTile.contentView!.bounds, of: appDockTile.contentView!, preferredEdge: NSRectEdge.minY)
return false
}
}However, the NSPopover is not displayed and raizes always the following error message:[NSPopover showRelativeToRect:ofView:preferredEdge:]: view has no window. You must supply a view in a window.A popup can apparently only be displayed with reference to a view on a NSWindow. This would also be understandable if an NSPopover could not be displayed without problems at an NSStatusBarButton - and similar to a DockTile there is nothing to be seen of an NSWindow.Does anyone have an idea or tip on how to display a popover to a DockTile or is that really not possible?
