Is there anyway to manipulate the order of subviews from within IB?
I've tried in the "object outline view" view to copy and paste, or
drag, but it doesn't work.
Certain UI elements (NSSplitView) use the order of their subviews to
determine the order in which they display the views in the UI. A
problem with split views is that any action that causes IB to remove a
subview (even temporarily) from a split view means that the subview
will be added at the END of the list upon replacement. For instance,
if a top-level view in a split view is an NSBox, and you do an "Unpack
Subviews" to get rid of the box, you end up with the contents shuffled
to the end of the split view's pane list.
As soon as something like this happens, it's time for the ol' "unpack
the split view, rearrange the objects, and rebuild the split view"
routine. Tedious, especially when the split view has custom sizing
information and outlets configured.
