The others bind the contentObjects and selectedObject binding available on NSMatrix. As NSMatrix is informally deprecated in OS X 10.8 and later does anyone know a way to bind multiple NSRadioButtons to a single numeric value as was once done with selectedIndex or selectedTag such that the selected radio button follows the numeric value? Similarly does anyone have a way to bind multiple buttons to a single object value like NSMatrix’s selectedObject was used previously? Ideally any solution should be backwards compatible to OS X 10.6 as I still need to support that release. I have searched the internet though I have not seen a solution that will work without major changes to my model code. Not that I am not willing to make the changes. I just wonder if anyone has been enlightened with a cooler solution.

If you have a bunch of “naked” radio buttons, all having the same target and selector (but presumably different tags, so you can distinguish them), they will automatically act as a group. This behaviour came in at some point in the mid OS X era, say 10.5/10.6, so isn’t universal, but it’s less bother than messing about with NSMatrix. If you need to set one programatically, just keep outlets to the individual buttons.
