Suitcase? I find nothing that looks like a suitcase, and the IB Help has nothing about a suitcase!

A bare minimum RTFM is in order.


Sorry, but damnit I do try. After looking over the docs on NSButton I think I might understand how this is done, but I'm not sure at this stage.
In any event, making a stupid button red or whatever seems like a lot of work for a result of so little consequence. Is this a plot to encourage people to adhere to Apple's idea of what looks good?

As for the FM: it does not exist as such. What does exist is incomplete and often cryptic docs on the various classes, legacy stuff scattered all over hell and gone, marginal tutorials from Apple, some other better-than-marginal tutorials from other folks, an ill-advise book called "Learning Cocoa," a worthless tome from Jesse Feiler, and for someone like me who knows how to get his hands on an advance copy, a book out of the Big Nerd Ranch that is a giant leap beyond the bug-ridden Apple/O'Reilly nonsense. And this list! Thank you again, but please remember in future that if I have not RTFM, it's because I have not been able to find the bloody thing.
