This confuses me.
Tab views and toolbars are really easy to learn, and practically
essential Mac OS X interface fundamentals. Why not learn how to use
them? It really isn't difficult.

I recently developed an application where I have a main window
with a toolbar on top. Each icon will open a new view with
different tables and text fields, etc. in the same main window
(more or less like a preference pane). I do all this in the
MainMenu.nib which is obviously crowded by instantiated classes
controlling each view.
Is this the most efficient way to this or should I perhaps have a
nib file for each view (how could this be done then). Which is
better, and potentially why?
The handiest way is to fill the window with a tabless NSTabView and
to make the toolbar simply switch the tabs in the tabview. Unless
you really want to learn using tabviews and toolbars, I would
suggest to use Uli Kusterer's UKPrefsPanel: http://www.zathras.de/
