OK, if I understand the documentation correctly, the first suggestion might work. Thanks.
I don't think the second one is applicable here. (I have used that successfully within one class.) Yes, the observed editLayer in displayController was being observed by the displayEditcontroller. The NSIndexSet was being observed by the displayController. These had to be set in their respective "awakeFromNib" because the connections had to be in place to get access to the document to ger the NSIndexSet (i.e., the path through the data hierarchy to get to the Shot and Layer). >> I have traced the problem to KVO race conditions. > > In most cases these can be solved by setting up the key dependencies > and occasionally by using the NSKeyValueObservingOptionInitial > (Leopard only) option. > > From your summary, I'm assuming that the editLayer property is > dependent on the NSIndexPath that you're also observing. > > So, if you're targeting 10.4 you can use the > +setKeys:triggerChangeNotificationsForDependentKey: method in your > controller's +initialize method to set the dependencies.
