Hi,
I'm developing a document based application using cocoa and just now starting to implement toolbars for it. The way I currently have it set up is that the toolbar is stored in the Document.nib file along with the main window and view used by that document. The toolbar communicates with a controller that accesses the document's contents.
I suppose the name toolbar is slightly misleading, as clicking an item in the toolbar directly and instantly manipulates the document, using the main document's controller as delegate.
I've added a View menu to the MainMenu.nib file, which I want to use to allow the user to show and hide various toolbars. However, since the menu and toolbar are in separate nib files I can't seem to create an action in one nib that triggers a response in the other. Would it work to make duplicates of the controller class and instance, and have one in each nib? I tried duplicating the toolbar itself but that caused two toolbars to open!
As a side note, does anyone know how to put the title bar on the side of a toolbar instead of on the top?
Thanks,
Dave H.
