I added a Split View to my app, as:
Window
W
W TabView
W T
W T TextField
W T
W T Browser
W T
W T TabView
W T T
W T T Split View
W T T S
W T T S TableView
W T T S
W T T S TextView
The Split View looks real nice and scales wonderfully, but for some
reason, I'm now unable to get IB to connect up to the TextView. It
keeps connecting to the enclosing ScrollView, instead. The Info
window then says:
TextView_FA NSScrollView(NSTextView)
and the app gets some (predictable) nastygrams:
2003-02-15 13:55:00.039 Morinfo[905] Instances of class NSScrollView
do not respond to selector setFont:
2003-02-15 13:55:01.766 Morinfo[905] Instances of class NSScrollView
do not respond to selector setString:
Help?
-r
Clearly, connecting to the ScrollView is a bad thing. To make sure
that I don't stick my foot in my mouth, I went and checked the behavior
of IB for my setup (which does not involve a split view, though). In
my experience, ctrl clicking the original object and moving the mouse
*inside* the scroll view hi-lights the item inside. However, moving
the mouse to the border of the scroll view selects the actual scroll
view.
If you can't get this to work, you can use the NSScrollView function
-documentView to programmatically get the view inside.
One other note: I am assuming that to put the split view inside the
scroll view, you selected the split view and chose the menu option
Layout->Make Subviews of->Scroll View. If not, try that method.
