This is the single question that's keeping all newbies awake at night.
Provided that your Prefs nib has a controller, you can use a Notification to let your main app know about the color changes.
However, isn't it plausible that your Prefs nib is lazily loaded by your main app? If so, it can easily place a link to itself in the Prefs baby. The Notification is cooler though, I think.
As the more experienced hands already has noted, the Responder chain should also work for you.
Another way is to make your main app the delegate of NSApp. Then other classes can find it with [NSApp delegate].
Just some thoughts from another newbie, please correct me if I'm wrong. Regards, Bertil 24 mar 2008 kl. 17:03 skrev [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
Is there a way to programmatically connect to a NIB file and read it's outlets without changing my File's Owner? I have a color well in one NIB (My Prefs NIB) and a window in another. I want the color well to change the window's background. I have an action called setColor:, but I cannot figure out how to access the window outlet from the NIB containing the window. Please help!
