The thing is, I'm hoping to implement floating toolbars. We have many, many functions we want the user to be able to access quickly, and a toolbar within the window would be good for perhaps font settings etc. but there simply wouldn't be enough room in the main window.......

However, if a window consisted only of an NSToolbar, maybe that would work. I'll do some research on this today. The issue remains about communication between objects in separate .nib files.

Generally, there are better ways by rethinking the general GUI, or using floating palette windows from which one can drag objects (like IB has them) instead of three rows of tiny icons ;-) You're cordially invited to talk with us at the Mac-GUI-Dev mailing list (http:// groups.yahoo.com/group/mac-gui-dev) about alternative approaches to having lots of toolbars.
