Public Methods

Method	Description
GetFieldEditor ( IntPtr clientHandle ) : NSObject	Gets the field editor required for the specified control. When you are embedding an Eto control inside a native NSWindow, certain events for the TextBox and similar controls may not fire as they are handled through a custom field editor. You must wire up your native NSWindowDelegate to handle windowWillReturnFieldEditor:toObject: and call this method with the handle of the client object.
ToEto ( this view ) : Control	Wraps the specified view to an Eto control that can be used directly in Eto.Forms code.
ToEtoWindow ( this window ) : Window	Wraps the specified Cocoa window in an Eto control so it can be used as a parent when showing dialogs, etc.
ToNative ( this control, bool attach = false ) : MonoMac.AppKit.NSView	Gets the native Mac NSView that contains the Eto.Forms control. Note for some controls, this will not be the 'main' native control. For example, a GridView on OS X will return a NSScrollView instead of a NSTableView, since the table view itself does not scroll. When you intend on using the control inside an existing native application, set attach to true so that it can prepare for attaching to the native application by sending OnPreLoad/Load/LoadComplete events.
ToNative ( this window ) : NSWindow	Gets the native NSWindow from a Window
