[Pyobjc-dev] NSString.drawAtPoint_withAttributes_()

[Dinu G. <gh...@da...>]

Hi,

in order to use print some text on an NSView I found out I need to do
first this to have access to the drawAtPoint_withAttributes_() which
is defined in some NSStringAddition category or so of AppKit:

   from Foundation import NSString
   from AppKit import *

First question is: how to do this without importing *?

Then I get some string like this (not sure if a Python string would
magically do as well):

   s = NSString.stringWith...(...)

but when calling

   s.drawAtPoint_withAttributes_((x, y), {...})

I get this error:

   AttributeError: 'objc.pyobjc_unicode' object has no attribute
   'drawAtPoint_withAttributes_'

Has anybody tried writing a string that way to a view before? Is
this a bug? I'm on PyObjC 1.0b1.

Regards,

Dinu
