[PD] [Maybe off-topic] Cocoa question for PD using Paradiddle

[vade]

Eric (on the share.dj list), or anyone else who may know out there in 
the ether..

I have an NSColorWell that triggers the following IBAction, that is 
sending its values to a bunch of NSSliders via this code:

- (IBAction)sendFontRGBA:(id)sender
{
	oneColor = [sender color];
	oneRed = [oneColor redComponent]; //floats declared in header
	oneBlue = [oneColor blueComponent]; //floats declared in header
	oneGreen = [oneColor greenComponent]; //floats declared in header
	
	[oneInvisibleBlue setFloatValue:oneBlue]; // set the sliders to the 
color component..
	[oneInvisibleGreen setFloatValue:oneGreen];
	[oneInvisibleRed setFloatValue:oneRed];
}

Now, this works, and I can see the NSSlider Values change as I mess 
with the NSColorWell... however... im using Paradiddle, and the 
NSSliders (oneInvisibleGreen etc) are hooked up to send data to PD via 
their respective tooltip values. This *works* (! and is very very 
cool), but only if I MANUALLY CLICK THE SLIDERS and trigger some sort 
of NSEvent, not if the NSColorWell programatically sets them.

How can I force NSSLider to act like it has been mouse clicked so I can 
use a freaking COLOR WELL in PD instead of a bunch of fucking 
sliders??? This is an extreme hack that I shouldnt have to do anyway.. 
as Paradiddle should automatically take the float argb values from the 
NSColorWell and shoot them over to PD anyway.. with this method 
eventually once it works the NSSliders will be invisible (thus my 
stupid name)..

anyone have any idea what im talking about? ;)

thanks. :)

By the way, if you want to make kick ass Pure Data interfaces and run 
PD on OS X, Paradiddle is *really kick ass*... check it out!
