Hello List,this is probably something that sounds stupid but as I'm new to the Mac, I'm not entirely sure how this is done right. I have a design decision to make on how (or even if) to store window setup data.
I have a document base application. The document window has a couple of user-customizable properties such as splitter widths and whether certain views are shown. The user can also change properties on how the data is presented. This all is represented in the UI by various split views, sliders, buttons, checkboxes, the window location and size and so forth.
I'm wondering if there was a design guide on how to store those kind of things. Does a document usually restore it's entire window state independently, is it stored only once globally (so last closed wins) or something entirely different?
Also, if that data is it stored on a per document basis, is it stored as a part of the document data or in the user defaults data. Storing in the user default database (or someplace else) would remember all documents opened by a user but not influence the look and feel if its opened by someone or somewhere else.
Thanks for any input! Regards Markus -- __________________________________________ Markus Spoettl
