For the first time a few days ago, I began to use NSPopUpButton and began to test it in IB3 to experiment around and see what it could do. Ultimately, I was planning on using -setImage: programattically, but it seemed odd that I couldn't set its image in IB. Within a few minutes, I had solved the problem. Firstly I had to make sure I set the image on the actual NSMenuItem inside the pop up button, not the button itself. Second, ??????. Thirdly, I found I could only see the image when I ran the interface in Cocoa Simulator (or built/ran the whole application). So, rest assured it works, but you just won't see it in IB3.
