Dear list members I have created in IB Plugin based on the Xcode template and everything works fine. If you need the completly boring source to help me out I can upload the full project somewhere.
Here's what I'd like to accomplish: I have a custom NSView subclass that is configured to be a container for other objects. Exposing child objects using "- (NSArray *)ibDefaultChildren" works as expected. Now I want to be able to drag other Library Objects from my IBPlugin inside the container but limiting the objects to certain classes. How does IB determine the possible drop locations for dragged library objects? I have implemented: - (void)ibDidAddToDesignableDocument:(IBDocument *)document { NSObject *parent; parent = [document parentOfObject:self]; NSLog(@"ibDidAddToDesignableDocument: %@", document); NSLog(@" parent: %@", parent); // Try to remove ourself when added to the wrong parent if ([parent isKindOfClass:[self class]] == NO) { [document removeObject:self]; NSLog(@" removed"); } } I assumed (wrongly) that I might be able to check the parent object and remove the just-added instance, but that leads to a nice "assertion failure" in IB. Is there any way for a object to refuse itself to be dropped in certain locations?
