Hey Lincoln -
To do this with actions and outlets, you just have to have your
controllers communicate.
Something like this should work:
@interface MainController : NSObject {
NSWindow *window;
}
- (void)setWindowBackgroundColor:(NSColor *)color;
@end
@implementation MainController
- (void)setWindowBackgroundColor:(NSColor *)color {
[window setBackgroundColor:color];
}
@end
@interface PrefController : NSObject {
NSColorWell *colorWell;
MainController *mainController;
}
- (IBAction)updateColor:(NSColorWell *)sender;
@end
@implementation PrefController
- (IBAction) updateColor:(NSColorWell *)sender {
[mainController setWindowBackgroundColor:[colorWell color]];
}
@end
I typed that directly into Mail, so it probably won't compile -

Alright, I have been searching archives, following tutorials, and
looking at source code for several hours, and I cannot figure out
the answer to my problem.
Is there a way to programmatically connect to a NIB file and read
it's outlets without changing my File's Owner? I have a color well
in one NIB (My Prefs NIB) and a window in another. I want the color
well to change the window's background. I have an action called
setColor:, but I cannot figure out how to access the window outlet
from the NIB containing the window. Please help!
