What's the recommened way to build an inspector that displays a different list of subviews for differnet types of inspectee? What I decided to do is this: I made the inspecting window large, used IB to build three different "looks" for the inspector, connected outlets, buttons, and so on. I made sure that the three views were the same size. Then I grouped each look into a box for ease of handling. Now, when my inspector gets and inspect:aThing message, it sends the current box a moveTo:400:400 message and the needed box a moveTo:5:5 message. This shifts the unneeded box out of the window, and brings the new one in. This seems to work OK. But I'd like to know, how was I "supposed" to do this? M-
