How to get frame for NSStatusItem

Question

Is it possible to get the frame of a NSStatusItem after I've added it to the status bar in Cocoa? When my app is launched, I am adding an item to the system status bar, and would like to know where it was positioned, is possible.

Answer 1

The following seems to work - I have seen similar solutions for iOS applications and supposedly they permit submission to the app store because you are still using standard SDK methods.

    NSRect frame = [[statusBarItem valueForKey:@"window"] frame];

Answer 2

You can use statusItem.button.superview?.window?.frame in swift
