OK, thanks. But this still leaves me with the question of how to reference my windowcontroller objects from the mainmenu nib? I need this because I want to modify the title of some menu items, depending on the state of the document windows. So I would like to make my windowcontroller objects menu delegates. I thought about using an application delegate as file's owner in the mainmenu nib, and then target the menu items from this delegate. From the app delegate I can reference the window using keyWindow, but I haven't found a way to reference the windowcontroller objects... _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
