Request for binding NSToolbarItemVisibilityPriority

[tipa]

Apple platform

macOS

Framework version

net8.0-*

Affected platform version

.NET 8

Description

It looks like NSToolbarItemVisibilityPriority is not bound. It would be nice if it was, similar to NSStackViewVisibilityPriority.

This is used to assign visibilityPriority

Steps to Reproduce

var toolbarItem = new NSMenuToolbarItem("id");
toolbarItem.VisibilityPriority = NSToolbarItemVisibilityPriority.Low;

Did you find any workaround?

I can still assign an integer, but using an enum or constant would be more explanatory.

Build logs

No response

Unfortunately we can't change the property type of the "VisibilityProperty" in order to keep binary compatibility (unless we introduce a different property, but that's somewhat clunky).

However, I can add some documentation to the property, so hopefully that alleviates the problem.

No, the property type is fine (just like NSStackView.VisibilityPriority also is of type float), but maybe the constants could be specified somewhere, like this:

public enum NSToolbarItemVisibilityPriority : int
{
    Standard = 0,
    Low = -1000,
    High = 1000,
    User = 2000,
}

Similar to:

	public enum NSStackViewVisibilityPriority : int {
	MustHold = 1000,
	#if !NET
	[Obsolete ("Use 'MustHold' instead.")]
	Musthold = MustHold,
	#endif
	DetachOnlyIfNecessary = 900,
	NotVisible = 0
	}
