Frank, Shawn, Simon,
Thanks for the pointers. I have an NSMatrix that I dynamically update
and change in real time. I was hoping I could share it between two
NSWindows by simply having each window set its content view to the
one NSMatrix, but as Shawn pointed out, a view can only have one
super view. So do I have to make another NSMatrix, and maintain it
along with the original? Seems like a waste. I was also hoping I
could just issue a -copy to it, but that's not supported for views.
Thanks,
Roland

Dear Roland,
It is true that you cannot have the same _instance_ of NSView
shared between two windows, but you can certainly instantiate the
same view definition twice by loading it from a separate nib file.
That will give you two separate controllers linked to the same model.
Best regards,
Frank

on a control panel; the other is what people see, full-screen, on
a dedicated monitor.
It seems that -setContentView:cview somehow removes cview from
wherever it's currently associated, and associates it only with
the receiver. Is there a way to share a content view between two
NSViews?
