Re: Standard NSToolbarItems

I'm having a small problem constructing a toolbar for an application
I'm working on. The toolbar items that I create work perfectly, but
I'd also like to use a couple of Apple's predefined standard toolbar
items. If I just do something like the following, the item itself
works and displays correctly in the toolbar, but it shows up as a
completely blank object in the customization sheet(no name, no image,
but can still be dragged to the toolbar):

[tDict setObject:[[NSToolbarItem alloc]
initWithItemIdentifier:NSToolbarFlexibleSpaceItemIdentifier]
forKey:@"Flexible Space Item"];

where the delegate methods allow the toolbar to get items from tDict.
Any ideas?

I have code very similar to this, storing my toolbar items in a dictionary for retrieval. My code differs in that I don't add any items to the dictionary for built-in identifiers, so my delegate just ends up returning nil for those items. I had actually never realized that my code did this before, because it just works, but give it a shot and see if it works for you too.
