You mean to File's Owner? Is the "Custom Class" of File's Owner set to the
right class? Both right-drag and ctrl-drag still work for me to connect button
actions in 6.1.1 (which is the latest on the MAS).

This is for adding a new outlet/action. I was under the impression you had an
existing one that you just wanted to hook up?

I'm not sure what you're trying to do. Can you give us a better description?
Your app delegate has an act: method but you're trying to connect to it by
dragging to a MyView?
