But why? In the exact terms you've used, this is not a pattern you're likely to use in any practical application. Although Objective-C is in many senses a dynamic language, this particular kind of dynamism is not usual in most applications. If there's only one "new" label, then you might as well go ahead and design it into your code and your interface to begin with (even if it's hidden initially). If there might be an arbitrary number of new labels to show in the interface, you might use an NSArray or NSDictionary instance variable to hold the values, and a NSTableView to display them. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
