Re: Building a panel with templated views?

So I created each line of items as children of a custom view in IB. The question I have is how to take those and make instances as needed at run time. I can easily get one instance of each type, but it's unclear how to make clones - I need the custom view object from IB to act as a template for numerous future instances rather than an actual instance.

Basically, you have two choices:

1) copy your object using -copy (not sure that works for views and their subviews, though, if you subclass you may have to implement copyWithZone:)

2) put each custom view in its own NIB file. Then you can use the NSBundle NIB loading methods to load a new copy of your views each time.
