Isolate NSTextView from NSColorWell

Hi all, I have a window created in IB containing a NSScrollView embedding a NSTextView. In the same window I have a NSColorWell which is supposed to store the color preference for a given object not related to the NSTextView. I would like to be able to change the color of the NSColorWell withou

I just factored out the Abstract Entity, since this approach better models the actual data in my real app. Thanks in advance to Roland and Glenn. I say "in advance" because a more realistic data model is often not appreciated until version 2.0, but then you're very happy you've got it! __

Re: Core Data can't do Distinct Relationships to Same Entity

Why don't you have a property 'arms' which is a to-many property? If you want to find a specific arm from the body you can iterate the arms looking for the one you want, or in the generic case use a predicate to find it for you. That also scales well when you put Hindu Gods (or Venusians) into

Core Data can't do Distinct Relationships to Same Entity

Say that I'm modelling a human body. Each body has two arms, and I model them with the same entity; one has, maybe, setFlipped:YES and the other has setFlipped:NO. But they are accessed for different purposes; sometimes I want the left arm and sometimes the right arm. I'd therefore like to se
