I'm having an issue with a popup in a tableview.

The Selected Object binding is configured thus:

Bind to:  tblPattern_Yarn
Controller Key:  arrangedObjects
Model Key path: relYarn

Everything else is the defaults that IB provides when that binding is set
up.


tblPattern_Yarn is the intermediary table between tblPattern and tblYarn.
tblPattern is the "master" table in this case.


relYarn is the relationship in tblPattern_Yarn that links the Pattern to the
Yarn.

I don't think you want the Selected Object of the pop-up to refer to a relationship.


What entity does the tblPattern_Yarn array controller use for its elements? What property of that entity should be changed when the user picks something from the pop-up? That's the property which should be named by the Model Key Path of the Selected Object binding of the pop-up. Since the pop-up is having the user make a singular choice, I would expect that property to be an attribute or a to-one relationship, not a to-many relationship.

Another important consideration is how the Content and possibly the Content Objects binding of the pop-up is configured. If Content Objects is configured, then an element from that is what will be used to set the Selected Object. If Content Objects is not configured, then the pop-up will just use the element from the Content-bound array for the Selected Object. Are you sure those bindings are set up to make sense.

Regards,
Ken
