/me raises hand.
I'm currently stuck on challenge 1 in chapter 8 (pg 135): Make the
application sort people based on the number of characters in their
names using only Interface Builder.
I can do it by cheating (not using Interface Builder), but for the
life of me I can't figure it out using only IB.
Assuming you've followed the RaiseMan example up to that point,
and have IB open, select the 1st column of the NSTableView (in
MyDocument.nib - or .xib, depending on your Xcode version), and
examine its properties with the inspector window.
Make sure the sortKey is personName.length, and the selector is
"compare:". If that doesn't work, delete the text for the sort key
and try again. If it still doesn't work, then something isn't
connected to the ArrayController properly. Otherwise, you should be
able to get it to work with that key path.
HTH!
