(Using Xcode 4.2, writing for OS X Lion) I have a hierarchy of stuff I want to display (at the same time) in both outline view and a custom view. Sort of analagous to the Buck and Yacktman (Cocoa Design Patterns) example in CH. 29, but with Outline instead of Table. I'll most likely have a detail view available also.
I've only used NSTreeController with a single outline view before. Now I have found that "arrangedObjects" aren't what one would like them to be. Also found that (for some reason) all the 'canInsert' and it's relatives have value NO (for some reason I can't find (or find with google)). So so far, it appears that NSTreeController is little help in coordinating my two views. (By the way, I've always had my add, delete functions work directly on the model in the past.) It seems to me now it would be better and simpler to go back to using a data source approach, and use an architecture more like Buck and Yacktman's figure 29.4 (page 357) with a handmade mediating controller. Any suggestions or comment!?
