Hi all,
My end goal is to have an interface that swaps views and performs
actions at each of those views, with the ability to go back and forth
over those views. Not sure how to do this I found something similar to
what I want to do in View swapping using a view controller. So I have a
Main Window, that contains a NSView aka the right side of a vertical
split view object and I have set up a situation using multiple xib
interfaces containing views to swap.
Using an NSViewController object by following the example
(http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/samplecode/ViewController/).
This issue I am running into is where to place the buttons at to control
swapping between views. At certain times I don't want the buttons to be
there unless certain conditions are met. So that led me to the idea of
placing the buttons I want within the Views, this is different from the
example which provides a drop-down menu that's always visible as
provided in the example. So I have a refresh button (left side of the
split view)that checks that the conditions are right, if they are it
loads the first view, I have this part working.
The part I am having trouble with is getting the buttons I make in each
view to call a method in the Window Controller. I figured swapping in
out views would be a much better solution than doing a whole lot of
setHidden: calls. The Views that I am swapping in are subclasses of
NSViewController. I have tried adding a NSObject in Interface Builder
and classing it to that of my Window controller, this allows me to
connect the button to the method, but causes a init loop, when I remove
the refresh button method call from awakeFromNib that causes the init
infinite loop to stop but now view swapping does not happen, even though
my logs say the method is being called. I am new to Cocoa Development
so any guidance and suggestions are welcomed, it seems like I am doing
this the hard way...
Thanks,
Dan
