I tried this with OmniGraffle, but only got a blank page. I was able
to view the xcode project, but not the nib file. I had a try at
nibtool, but didn't find it very useful. Ideally I would like to see
the links with between the objects graphically with descriptions.
Maybe a "View all Bindings with Annotation" feature would be very
cool for this purpose.
Thanks

I am working on an cocoa app now and just have a insight about the
cocoa framework, especially interface builder.
Cocoa bindings is great and interface builder is good, however, the
main problem of wiring connects and bindings is that : it is very
difficult to explain what you did to your co-workers, you have to sit
down before a display and show the wiring! I might even say that it
is also difficult to remember what you did.
Of course cocoa veterans will point out everything can be done in
code, but that is not the point here.
Are you asking a specific question in the above? :)
Anyway do you know about the following...
1) In IB you can toggle the instances panel of the main nib window to
a table mode that shows connections and bindings. You toggle by
clicking the little widget that looks like lines of text near the top
of the scroller on the right side of the window.
2) If you have OmniGraffle Pro you can drop your nib on it and it will
attempt to render connection information. (you can also drop an xcode
project on it for extra fun)
3) (another way exists to show bindings and connections in bulk but I
am blanking on how to do it...)
