You want to influence the content and appearance of the previous, existing
MasterView. Why are you creating a new MasterView instead?
The usual way to implement an editor is to create some representation of the
new object (I like to use NSDictionary) and pass that as a property of the
editor controller. Also, let the editor controller have a weak pointer back to
the master, and a protocol to let the master know the editor has been Done or
Canceled, so the master can harvest the edited data (or not), and dismiss the
editor.
Note that that way, the editor knows how to get to the actual master, and that
unlike your code, it does not have to know anything about the master's internal
workings.
