How do you found your way around in the ref docs?

A question from a newbie. I tried to create a simple application with one
text field and one button. I opened NSTextField Class Reference and looked
for a getter method in order to get the text that the user has entered in
the text field. Looked through all the document, which took quite a while,
but found nothing. Then I looked in the superclass NSControl Class
Reference. Looked in Methods by Task but didn't find anything to begin with,
but after a while found the getter method stringValue under the heading of
"Setting the control's value".

My question is if there is some logic to

1. Storing the getter of a text field in NSControl instead of NSTextField
2. Storing a getter method under the heading "Setting the control's value"
(instead of something like "Setting/Getting the control's value").

Thanks
Frank
