Ok, so slider not posting KVO change notifications explains that. I have read through the linked doc a bunch of times (that's the only doc on bindings I can find really) But I don't see a list there of what DOES post change notifications and what doesn't. How does one know? And what's the recommended way to handle a control like that then?

So it seems like there's something more fundamental I am not getting.

Ie: In another case, I have an array of arrays managed through an NSArrayController. So, I have a view that I want to bind the currently selected array to so that I can do something with that array. However, my NSArrayController only seems to post change notifications when I click outside the tableview handling the current selection and not when I click around in the tableview on different elements of the array.. Why is this?

Example of what I mean:

MyDocument.h:

IBOutlet NSArrayController mailboxesController;
MailboxView *mailBox;

MyDocument.m:

-(void)awakeFromNib;
{
[mailBox bind:@"mailArray" toObject:mailboxesController withKeyPath:@"selection.mail" options:nil];
}


In IB, I have a NSTableView view bound to my mailboxesController which shows my array of mailboxes. As I click the different mailboxes, my "mailArray" setter in MailboxView does *not* get called. But if I click outside the nstableview, it does.

What is it I am not understanding?

I get the initial value this is set to when it starts up, but when I subsequently slide the slider up and down, it does NOT update my view.
What am I doing wrong?


Binding two views to each other. You should bind _myView's value to the model property.
(For the technical issue: the slider does not post KVO change notifications. See:
