I use:
[nameField setStringValue: ...];
in Collector init. Even though window shows up with empty field. I
assume it is emptied upon show up or window construction.
How can is be set up to some non-empty string in such a way that
window appear with some value?
Thanks.

hi,
values in NSTextField are not set by the convetional way, the are
set by using the SetStringValue command. so for example if you
have a certain string in variable called temp and you want to
display it in a text field the command will be as follows:
[textField setStringValue:temp];
hope this helps you.

Hi,
I am quite new in Cocoa programming and didn't understand yet how
to set initial value for some NSTextField from program?
Imagine I have a collection (Array of data, say, mates names). Want
to see the first name from array in window once program starts up.
So, I have a controller. Controller is instantiated in projects NIB.
Field (NSTextField), call it 'mate name', is connected to
Controller via IBOutlet. Unfortunately setting any value in given
text field from Controller init method does not produce any
meaningful effect because it is executed before main window
actually displayed resulting in empty field shown upon window
appearance.
So, how to resolve this issue and thus set some text in NSTextField
so that once Window is opened this value to be automatically shown?
Thanks.
