Thank for the reply, but about 1 minute after I sent the mail I found
out about the SimpleMultiWindow example which is exactly what I need.
Typical that I find it right after the mail
But thanks a lot anyway :)

Hello everyone,
Let's say I have two windows and two controllers. Window1 and
controller1 are in nib1. Window2 and controller2 are in nib2. A button
in window1 wants to tell window2 to open/close/resize/whatever. Now my
problem is: how do I do this best? I need some way for the two
controllers to communicate with each other.
How about using notifications. Window2 tells the default notification
center it wants to hear about messages called
"Window1WantsWindow2ToChange".
Then when Window1 wants Window2 to change, it posts a message to the
default
notification center called "Window1WantsWindow2ToChange". The
notification
center then tells Window2 that it has a message it is interested in.
You can pass a dictionary in a message too if you want to pass data
from
Window1 to Window2.
