I have an app I started in early 2003, using whatever version of OS X was standard then and whatever Dev tools. I have been working on it since then, off and on, and converted it to XCode when it came out. I have been trying to get it finished (last 5% :-) for V1 to get it out there in the wild. I have not been in IB in this app in a lot of time, most of the work in the last year or so (since 10.3 at least) has been code, and not IB stuff. Tonight I was trying to use
IB to make a new preferences panel. I created a panel and put a bunch of text fields and some radio buttons and some submit-type buttons on it. I added a bunch of IBOutlets to a .h file and imported that into IB to update that class. The instance of the class in IB shows the new outlets. I click on the instance of my class in IB, and CONTROL-DRAG as usual up to one of my interface elements on my prefs panel. I do get the connecting line being drawn but none of the interface elements ever highlight and I cannot get the connection to actually connect to an interface element so that I can click the CONNECT button in the inspector to make the final connection.


Why is my IB not allowing me to make connections from my instance to an interface element? The same issue happens when I try and connect one textfield to the next textfield and set nextKeyView connections.

As an update. I copied the nib file to my intel mini (the problem is on the G5) and IB allows me to make connections as normal there. I copied that copy of IB from the mini back to the G5, it being a Universal app. Running it on the G5 and I cannot make the connections -- problem persists.


I also cannot make connections in the IB outline display mode of the main nib window. So both the object and the outline displays don't work.

Something is hosed on the G5 and I would like to find out what :-)

Thanks for any sort of ideas

best
Chad


I get no error and see nothing in the system console.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks
Chad
