Ken, Thanks for trying to help me out. I tried to follow your advice, but I must not have completely understood it.
I changed the relevant method to this: func outlineView( _outlineView: NSOutlineView!, objectValueForTableColumn tableColumn: NSTableColumn!, byItem item: AnyObject! ) -> AnyObject! { let node = getDocumentNodeFrom( item ) return node } And in the particular NSTextFieldCell, I made sure “Bind to Table Cell View” was checked, and I set the model key path to objectValue.title. I’d love to attach a screenshot of what I’ve done in Xcode, but I haven’t been able to make a JPEG small enough to get past the mailing list’s 25K limit. In case it matters, here’s part of the declaration of DocumentNode: import Foundation class DocumentNode : NSObject { var title: String var content: NSAttributedString var children: [DocumentNode] When I run my program, the outline view still shows disclosure triangles but no titles for the text view cells. -- Charles Jenkins On Saturday, September 6, 2014 at 13:42, Ken Thomases wrote: > > Depending on your model, you may actually find it's better to have your data > source return a "compound" model object and then bind the text field to just > a specific property of that model object.
