You can get a pointer to the NSClipView by calling superview on
NSTextView.
NSClipView * clipView = [textView superview];
More details on superview are here:

I've just recently moved into Cocoa after working in java Swing for a
while, and it's a bit of an adjustment, but I really like this ease of
laying out interface components with Interface Builder. I've been
through a few cocoa/objective-c books but I'm a little fuzzy on how
best to access user interface objects programatically.
For example, in one interface I have a large NSTextView that will act
something like a scrolling console with messages added to the bottom
from time to time. I've had no issue setting up an IBOutlet object in
my controller class and correctly displaying the strings, but I need
to access the NSScrollView (more specifically the NSClipView) of the
NSTextView so that I can tell it to scroll down when new lines are
added to the console.
If I just put an instance of an NSScrollView in my controller class,
can I somehow reference the NSScrollView from the IBOutlet NSTextView
object? Can I instantiate an NSScrollView in Interface Builder and
somehow connect it to the NSScrollView that comes with the NSTextView?
Should I just try and create, place and draw the whole NSScrollView
and TextView programatically? Should I create a spicific NSScrollView
in Interface Builder and place a NSTextView inside it, or will this
make an NSTextView in an NSScrollView in an other NSScrollView?
Any clarification would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
