They probably use an NSTableView or NSOutlineView. To get icons with the text entries, look at "/Developer/Examples/AppKit/DragNDropOutlineView/ImageAndTextCell.m". This NSCell subclass is written so you can just drag it into your project and it will work.

The tunes and photos are not actually stored in the table; what you see are simply references to the audio/image files. When you have a smart playlist that shows the 25 most played, iTunes will scan the table data and add references for the 25 most played. These references are then stored in the "iTunes 4 Music Library" file in your iTunes directory.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

I'm a n00b to Cocoa so please bare with me if I'm asking the wrong question.

Can someone point me to a documentation or sample code for how to implement the "Source column" view in iTunes and iPhoto? I don't mean the brushed metal look, but drawing the column which displays playlist and albums, and how a tune or photo can belong in multiple playlist or albums.

Thanks,
Robert
