Loading a different interface


  • Subject: Loading a different interface
  • From: John Joyce <email@hidden>
  • Date: Sat, 5 Jul 2008 10:30:40 -0500

In my application, I would like to give my users the option to choose various interface styles.
I've laid out my interface using a standard NSPanel as well as the HUD version. Both are suitable, but some users will prefer one over the other, of course.
Currently, I have both windows in one NIB.
Is there a way to choose which window is loaded from the NIB?
Is it possible to do this without losing the data in the document? (it is document based)
Would it be better/more practical to factor these into two different NIBs?


Also, on the same subject, is there a way to force a HUD window to display the zoom and minimize buttons?

Lastly, I have envisioned the possibility of simply having an info button like in Dashboard widgets and providing functionality similar to Dashboard widgets for flipping the window around to adjust the settings of the window. Does anybody already know of some open source example doing something similar?

cheers,
John Joyce
