RE: question on refreshing parameter data between instances.

Thanks for the example.  I am getting some results I really do not
understand.

I created a class (UISaveRestore) that implements the NSCoding protocol.  I
use this class to save a single string from several lists in our UI such as
the font the user selected (I don't save the entire list).

Here is my code from addParamaters

UISaveRestore *uiSaveRestore = [[[UISaveRestore alloc] init] autorelease];
[uiSaveRestore setType:SR_FONTLIST];
[_apiParam addCustomParameterWithName: [_bundle localizedStringForKey: @
DATE_FONT value:nil table: @"InfoPlist"]
                               parmId: ID_FONTLIST
                         defaultValue: uiSaveRestore
                            parmFlags: kFxParameterFlag_CUSTOM_UI];


The custom view just has a single pop up I fill with the font list

// here we initialize the font dropdown with the list of fonts (once)
NSPopUpButton *fontListDisplay = [_fontListView viewWithTag: UIT_FONTLIST];
if (_fInitFontList)
{
    [fontListDisplay addItemsWithTitles:_arrayFonts];
    _fInitFontList = false;
}

I am experiencing the following problems:

1) I do not get parameter changed messages when I change the selection in my
custom parameter font list.

2) I am getting a couple initWithCoder/encodeWithCoder messages for objs I
have not created.  And when these objects are created my init method is not
called.  Nor is my dealloc method called for these objs.  I don't understand
why this is happening, or to be more precise why these objects are being
created in the first place.

3) When I save the project there is no serialization/encodeWithcoder call
for the UISaveRestore obj I explicitly create when I am adding my custom
parameter.  There is a serialization call for an obj I didn't create.

4) My explicitly created obj never receives a dealloc message.

Thanks,

Jay
