I had something like this a few days ago. This worked for me.

Create a new nib for the satellite windows, Add a window to the nib and whatever you want in the window,
Sublass NSWindowController and be sure that it is File's Owner in the new nib.
Connect outlets and add files for the new NSWindowController class.

Init you new window instances with initWithWindowNibName:@"YourNewNibName"

Hi!

I posted this a while back but recieved no response, so I'll rephrase.

I have a single window app that features an NSTableView and an NSImageView, grouped in an NSSplitView. The NSTableView displays a catalog of images, and the NSImageView displays the currently selected image. It looks a lot like Mail.app (sans drawer), and works very well.

In the never-ending and naturally driven quest to add more functionality to a Cocoa app, I'm trying to implement a feature where the user can open a new window to display the currently selected image. You can have as many of these individual "Viewer" windows as you want.

I've created an NSWindowController subclass, and I'm displaying new viewer windows by creating instances of it (and adding them to an array). The windows appear, but I can't seem to make the image load in the imageView, and outlets don't seem to be connected...

Often, when I'm having trouble it's because I've overlooked an obvious, simpler implementation. Perhaps this is the case...

Any advice?

Thanks (again) in advance,
--Matt Judy
