macOS origin in visibleRect

[func]

Im trying to access the x and y positions of a view's origin (within a scrollview).

NSPoint p = [self visibleRect].origin;
NSLog(@"view's origin.x : %d", p.x);

If I inspect the first line in the debugger, the value of origin.x is set to some value > 0, depending on it's location. But the NSLog line will always print "view's origin.x : 0" .

What am I doing wrong here?

%d is for integers, but NSPoint's x and y values are floats, so use %f.

Thank you for the fast response!

Unfortunately it didnt solve the problem.
Now it outputs 0.00000 instead

What is "self" here? Is it the document view of the scroll view? If so you could try [[self enclosingScrollView] documentVisibleRect] and see if that gives anything different (might not). Also [self bounds] might be what you need.

Yeah, that solved it!

self was referring to a custom openGLView and not the documentaionView.

Thanks a lot!

Turn on as many warnings as possible. The compiler could have told you about the %d problem.
