Can a nib be confused about its owner?
Since the File's Owner "object" in a nib file is actually a proxy for an object that is provided at runtime, what happens if the nib is expecting NSApplication to be its File's Owner but you called for the nib to be loaded from inside your code using an instance of NSWindowController.

initWithCoder in Nib object loading
I notice that there are a couple different init methods used for nib loading. For instance, objects from the IB Library get an initWithCoder message, while custom view objects get an initWithFrame, and everything else gets an init. Why is this? Specifically, why a special initWithCoder technique? After all, isn't everything encoded? ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

Accessing properties of a generic class
I have a Person class with name and image properties stored in an array. When I access its properties from within the controller class like this: Person *person = [objectArray objectAtIndex:0]; [nameField setStringValue:person.name]; [imageArea setImage:person.image]; everything works fine. But when I try to do it generically: id object = [objectArray objectAtIndex:0]; [nameField setStringValue:object.name]; [imageArea setImage:object.image]; I get errors about the name and image properties not being in a structure or union. ___ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.

line break in Interface Builder
I need to know how to create a line break in Interface Builder.
"\n" does not work...
I have a multiline text field that is populated using bindings, the value is
modified using a display pattern:
%{value1}@ %{value2}@
I need a line break between these two values.
Any ideas?

Re: line break in Interface Builder
This was actually my first thought as well, but I was hoping to avoid this
technique because I am using this as part of a tutorial I want to remain in
Interface Builder as much as possible for this particular lesson.

How did I miss this?
I just released the the view on NSViewController objects can be accessed with dot syntax, i.e., self.view instead of [self view]. Has this always been the case? I don't see any listing of "Properties" in documentation.

Flowing text between text fields
On many applications, when you enter in a serial number, there are several text fields in a row, and as the user enters in the serial number the cursor automatically jumps to the next text field at the appropriate time. I am assuming that this is a long string being displayed across several text fields.

Re: Converting .wav files to MP3
I do a lot of audio conversion for my website. For .wav to .mp3 conversion it is necessary to perform a compression operation, so not all software supports it. Note that most all programs can open a .wav file, so you are looking for an "MP3 exporter" not a specific "WAV to MP3 converter". On the Mac there are several programs that I know can do this. Be aware that this operation is usually under the "Podcast" sections of these programs: Paid Apps: I use Bias Peak which has a downloadable plug-in for mp3 compression. The Apple tools Soundtrack and Compressor can do it as well, though it is not as straightforward. All of the studio recording software programs- Logic, Pro Tools, and Live can do this, but that is not what they are intended for, so it would be a big learning curve just if you haven't used them before. Free Apps: Garage Band probably can do this. I know you can import .wav files into a podcast project, and then "Send to iTunes" using mp3 compression. Audacity is the standard freeware for audio editing, but I have never used it. Hope this helps.
