I have a Core Data document based application. In the data model there
are five entities.
Currently I have a inspector panel with five NSArrayControllers, one
for each entity. The panel works well but currently all user
interaction is confined to the panel itself.
The primary user interface however is a custom view where the model
objects are presented to the user all mixed up and in random locations
like in a graphics application. The user needs to select one of these
objects and then do something with it.
Here is the issue. There is a tension between the inspector panel and
the primary view. The inspector panel wants one array controller per
entity. The primary view wants a single array controller.
A single array controller would work great for selection in the
primary view. But how would you get one array controller to work for
five entities?
Multiple array controllers works great for the inspector but the
primary view would need query the selected object and then send a
message to the proper array controller.
I am having a difficult time jumping from the simplified tutorials and
sample code to my specific application.
So which direction do I head?
