Re: NSToolbar - dynamic button addition



It's possible to programmatically add and remove toolbar items, as explained at <http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/ Conceptual/Toolbars/Tasks/AddRemoveToolbarItems.html#//apple_ref/doc/ uid/20000755-1049544>.

Whether or not it's possible to dynamically add and remove buttons to the customization sheet is an exercise for the reader. It might be the case that the customization sheet for an NSToolbar is only created once and never updated, in which case you'd have to reload the whole toolbar whenever you update its available buttons.

Hi,

A quick question... Is there a way to dynamically add new button to an NSToolbar ? Essentially, when the application starts, not all buttons are known and as plugins get loaded, I have to add buttons for them.

My toolbar works great right now (with static content).

Note that, at compile time and even at runtime when the toolbar is first created, I do not know the list of potential entries.

Thanks for any tip!
