Sets the delegate of the receiver. If not nil, the delegate must either be passive and respond to [NSObject -browser:numberOfRowsInColumn:] or be active and respond to [NSObject -browser:createRowsForColumn:inMatrix:] but not both. If the delegate is active it must also respond to [NSObject -browser:willDisplayCell:atRow:column:] . If the delegate is not nil but does not meet these conditions, an NSBrowserIllegalDelegateException will be raised.

See Also: -maxVisibleColumns

Sets the minimum column width in pixels and adjusts subviews.

See Also: -minColumnWidth

Parses path and selects corresponding items in the NSBrowser columns.

This is the primary mechanism for programmatically updating the selection of a browser. It should result in the browser cells corresponding to the components being selected, and the browser columns up to the end of path (and just beyond if the last selected cell's [NSBrowserCell -isLeaf] returns YES).
It does not result in the browsers action being sent to its target, just in a change to the browser selection and display.

If path begins with the -pathSeparator then it is taken to be absolute and the first component in it is expected to denote a cell in column zero. Otherwise it is taken to be relative to the currently selected column.

Empty components (ie where a -pathSeparator occurs immediately after another or at the end of path) are simply ignored.

The receivers delegate is asked to select each cell in turn using the -browser:selectCellWithString:inColumn: method (if it implements it). If this call to the delegate returns NO then the attempt to set the path fails.
If the delegate does not implement the method, the browser attempts to locate and select the cell itsself, and the method fails if it is unable to locate the cell by matching its [NSCell -stringValue] with the component of the path.

The method returns YES if path contains no components or if a cell corresponding to the path was found. Otherwise it returns NO.

Sets the path separator to newString. The default is "/".

See Also: -pathSeparator

If flag is YES, prevents NSMatrix objects from being freed when their columns are unloaded, so they can be reused. By default a NSBrowser does not reuses their columns.

See Also: -reusesColumns [NSMatrix -renewRows:columns:]

Sets whether pressing an arrow key will cause the action message to be sent (in addition to causing scrolling). By default YES.

See Also: -sendsActionOnArrowKeys -setAcceptsArrowKeys: [NSControl -setAction:] [NSControl -action]

Sets whether to separate columns with bezeled borders and marks self for display. Does nothing if the NSBrowser is titled. By default a NSBrowser has separate columns.

See Also: -separatesColumns -isTitled

Sets whether the title of a column is set to the string value of the selected NSCell in the previous column and marks self for display. By default YES

See Also: -isTitled -titleFrameOfColumn: -titleHeight

Sets whether columns display titles and marks self for display. Does nothing if the NSBrowser hasn't separates columns. By default a NSBrowser displays titles.

See Also: -isTitled -separatesColumns

Returns YES if the title of a column is set to the string value of the selected NSCell in the previous column. By default YES

See Also: -setTakesTitleFromPreviousColumn: -selectedCellInColumn:
