    <p>I have a <strong>list view class</strong> that just like NSCollectionView <strong>requires an additional prototype item and a prototype view</strong> to be of any use. When dropping an NSCollectionView from the library in Interface Builder those two helper items are automatically created. However I couldn't find a single official Apple document dealing with this use case (describing how its done).</p> <p>Digging thru the Apple Dev Guides I could however find "<a href="http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/DeveloperTools/Reference/NSObjectIBAdditions_Reference/Reference/Reference.html" rel="nofollow">ibDidAddToDesignableDocument</a>:".<br> With the following code I managed to get my auxiliary items created on drop from library:</p> <pre><code>- (void)ibDidAddToDesignableDocument:(IBDocument *)document { [super ibDidAddToDesignableDocument:document]; NSView *prototypeView = [[[NSView alloc] initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0.0, 0.0, 300, 65.0)] autorelease]; DLListViewItem *prototypeViewItem = [[[DLListViewItem alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil] autorelease]; [document addObject:prototypeViewItem toParent:nil]; [document addObject:prototypeView toParent:nil]; [document connectOutlet:@"view" ofSourceObject:prototypeViewItem toDestinationObject:prototypeView]; [document connectOutlet:@"listView" ofSourceObject:prototypeViewItem toDestinationObject:self]; [document connectOutlet:@"prototypeItem" ofSourceObject:self toDestinationObject:prototypeViewItem]; } </code></pre> <p>However…</p> <p>…<strong>IB adds those aux items</strong> for NSCollectionView <strong>only</strong> on the actual <strong>initial drag from the library</strong>, not on any other call of "ibDidAddToDesignableDocument:", such as when embedding, copying or duplicating the item. (while my method would, and on all) </p> <p>This makes me wonder whether Apple actually uses "ibDidAddToDesignableDocument:" for this and if I'm on the right track with this at all. </p> <p>How does one imitate this properly? I'm having a hard time trying to distinguish between different contexts for "ibDidAddToDesignableDocument:". Anybody successfully done this?<br> Unfortunately none of Google, Google Code, GitHub, or the documentation revealed anything helpful, so I'm in desperate need of help here. :(</p> <p>Thanks in advance!</p> <p>Edit: Oh great, this question just brought me the tumbleweed badge, yay! Not.<br> I'm more into useful answers actually, but thanks anyway ;)</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
