Hi,
In an effort to create a less structured set of IB objects, I would
like to 'tag' various IB elements.
For example, I might want to add a specific tag to a group of objects
that I might later want to show or hide. I might want to grab values
from only objects that contain some key wor
See the - (void)setRepresentedObject:(id)anObject method of NSCell. You can
set a string or dictionary and the represented object and retrieve it via
-representedObject.
You can also instantiate an array and add objects to the array within IB. Then
you only need an outlet instance variable t

Maybe the -tag method: it returns a 32-bit integer.. It's settable
in IB as the control's tag value. I don't know if i
Hi Greg!
Thanks for writing back.

It *would* be useful, but IB doesn't let you set it to a string in
Cocoa. It's limited to numeric values, which makes it less useful
for humans.
For a bit of perspective, this is doable in *CARBON* apps, via the
'Command' attribute in Interface Builder. You can only us

You can populate the array entirely within IB. Make any target/
action connections in IB.

Are you certain that works? 'NO' isn't an object, so I didn't think
you could use -makeObjectsPerformSelector:withObject: in this fashion

My bad - it doesn't even compile in fact, so I guess that answers that
question.

It compiles because NO == nil == NULL == 0.
I shouldn't have posted the silly example which doesn't work in most
cases.
how about this typed in mail:

Hi,
Here's why I'm asking.
Right now I have an app that has a number of possibly different
'objects' in it. And I currently have a single inspector for all of
them.
When a new object is selected, the appropriate view for that object is
added to the inspector window.
This is a basically o
If I understand correctly:
* You want to have a single general-purpose model class (what you are calling
the "object") for which different object types might have different sets of
attributes. Kind of like a dictionary or an NSManagedObject.
* You'd like to use xib files to serve as attribute
