Im doing some drawing in an NSTextView, and I'd like to get the rect of the currently selected line (when there is no selection, so just where the cursor is). I've done some research and it seems I have to use the NSLayoutManager of the text view. This is where I'm completely stuck, it seems like lineFragmentRectForGlyphAtIndex:effectiveRange: could be useful, but after experimenting, I just can't seem to get it right.

Any help is appreciated,
Oliver

I think this sample code is relevant.

Thanks for the link, seems very useful. One problem I am having getting my head around is finding the range for where the cursor is (by cursor, I mean the I-Beam, not the mouse). In the code you linked to, it seems to use:

glyphIndex = [layoutManager glyphIndexForPointoint inTextContainer:textContainer];

But I can't find anything to help with my problem.

Thanks
