Almost as if the subview is slightly scaled up/down, i.e. a 500x500 view is displayed/scaled to a 496/496 or 502/502.. Any ideas..?</p> Same here – embedding controls in a view and animating that view as a subview distorts all controls in that view.

I understand what wasserturm means:

I was able to add a radio button array to make the choice, and I added another MSZLinkedView called alternateView. This was hooked up in interface builder to the Third NSView, and then in the code, I just put in an if statement for the nextView action. Seems to work just fine.</p> <p>Now I just need to figure out how to make this all work in Tiger and I will be on my way.

Now I just need to figure out how to make this all work in Tiger and I will be on my way. Thanks for a great article, and a great site!

For example, right now it starts out with the First, which is wired to the Second. What is on the First view there was a Radio button, and depending on the users choice you would get either the Second or Third? How might that work?</p> <p>-m</p> Hey, I am wondering how I would extend this example to allow a choice/path. For example, right now it starts out with the First, which is wired to the Second.

I am not sure what you mean by “not correct”. I added labels (and the views already have buttons on them), and they display just fine. To what view are you adding elements?
