Heh - indeed. I'm not averse to writing code 8).. I just thought there might be a way to do it just using IB and bindings.


Presumably your App Controller could have outlets to the text field and the array controller...?
Or you could subclass NSArrayController to add an outlet to the text field...

Yes - I have subclasses NSArrayCotroller and given it an IBOutlet to the NSTextField etc. Works a treat.


There do seem to be an awful lot of ways to accomplish what you want in Obj-C and Cocoa. I've been writing C/C++ for a living 15+ years, and the weaker type constraints and generally more flexible architecture of Cocoa are taking a little getting used to. Most of the external libraries that I use in my day job are very strict in how they allow you to accomplish a certain task - Cocoa feels a lot different. It *is* falling into place as I try more things, but one of my worries is that I pick up too many bad habits and adopt techniques that may be frowned upon by more experienced Cocoa programmers.

Thanks for your patience - it is most appreciated.
