macOS custom views

[medasmx]

Enclosed is some code that is supposed to input data to a table view, then load it onto a custom view. I created two classes, TVcontoller and CVcontroller. TVcontroller is an NSObject, CVcontroller a custom view class. There is a textfield, two buttons, a tableview, and a customview. When you type into the textfield and hit enter, it loads it onto the table view. This is done in TVcontroller. The intention was when you press the second button, in CVcontroller, it should load the selecteditem in the table view onto the customview as a string.

The problem I am having is that the nsmutablearray is not seen in CVcontroller, even though I imported TVcontroller.h and .m. I tried to put the whole project into a zip file but it was 2.3 mb. Below are the two .m files. Thanks for any help.

If anyone wants the zip file, I can email it. Thanks.

custom views2

I solved the problem(refer to prior thread custom view). Below is the code. Basically the idea is to put items from a textfield into a tableview, then click and load them onto a cutomview. I have been trying over the past several weeks to learn about customviews, with this being an exercise to work on that. I would be happy to email the zip file.

custom views3

The follow-up question to my last two posts, is -- how do I create a matrix of custom views. I tried putting two custom views on the nib, then using layout to embed them in a matrix. That doesn't seem to work. Thanks for any help.

use [ code] and [/ code] (without the spaces) to enclose your code. It helps readability.
