The key is question is/was: filteredResultsString I moved things around to instead use: [self addObserver:self forKeyPath:@"itemsController.arrangedObjects.count" options:NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew context:NULL]; and - (void)observeValueForKeyPath:(NSString *)keyPath ofObject:(id)object change:(NSDictionary *)change context:(void *)context { // set the NSTextField } This seems to work fine. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
