I'm having trouble with my first Cocoa lesson which is at

Everything works fine until I open up Interface Builder and drag NSTextView over to the Application window. When I try to fix the size of the window, no
matter how many times I click on NSTextView to get it to change from
ScrollView, it does not change to TextView.

I'm not sure if this is a bug but the fact that it's mentioned in the
instructions makes me wonder.

I have tried double-clicking on the NSTextView object several times to get it to change, it always stays in Scrollview mode. Have also tried quitting
and then restarting IB, but that doesn't work either.

Has anybody else run into the same problem? How do you get it to change?

If you click on the actual text ("lorem ipsum..."), then it drills down to the text view. Clicking in the empty area of the scroll view doesn't do it.

Also, you can use the commands in the Tools menu -- Select Parent/ Child/Previous Sibling/Next Sibling -- to navigate the view hierarchy.

Lastly, the NIB window (as opposed to the window for the window in the nib) can be viewed in list or column modes, which let you navigate the hierarchy and select the right object.

Cheers,
Ken
