Instead of fretting about the views, just make two NSString (or NSAttributedString) properties in some object. Then make an NSObjectController with that object as its “content” outlet, and bind all the “A” views to the “A” property and the “B” views to the “B” property. This way the views will always be synced up, but you won’t have to bother with outlets at all.
