I initially thought that I could just have two NSTextFields, one for the question, one for the answer, however the problem with that is that some of the questions and answers actually include little images and I've been struggling for the past days trying to find out if, and if 'how', I can display an NSImage *inside* an NSTextField. But maybe this approach is totally newbish and crude and there is a much more elegant and cocoa-ish solution for what I'm trying to achieve?

If I understand you correctly, some of your questions have images *inline*?


I don't think NSTextField supports this directly. The path of least resistance is to use NSTextViews (that are sized down appropriately). This allows RTFD (RTF + attachments such as images).

If you simply mean there's an 'associated' image (whose position doesn't have to be "somewhere inside the question's text"), I'd just use a separate NSImageView and lay out your UI with this possibility in mind.
