IB: Can't find the Bindings Pane

Hello,

Newbie here...

Something is wrong with the IB from xCode 3.2.3... I can't get the Bindings Pane displayed. The Tools menu does not list it at all. I'm confused, does it need to be enabled from somewhere?

Thanks

Bring up the Inspector in IB (cmd-shift I).  Select the control of interest.  It's the 4th tab in the Inspector (the green boxes).  Or you can go directly to it with cmd-4.  Or Menu Tools -> Bindings Inspector.

Thanks for your reply!

I know this is odd but the Tools menu does not list the Bounding Inspector... Also cmd-4 opens up the Identity inspector. Here's how the screen looks for me... What could be the reason for that? Also tried on another Mac with xCode 3.1.3, same happens...

Thanks

Ok I guess I found the reason - I'm creating the iPhone app. Looks like Bindings are not available for this platform.

Yes, you're right about this (I've never taken any interest in the iOS platform).  I found this on Apple's web site: http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/Miscellaneous/Conceptual/iPhoneOSTechOverview/PortingfromCocoa/PortingfromCocoa.html


Article includes this intriguing statement: "Cocoa bindings are not supported in iOS. Instead, iOS uses a slightly modified version of the target-action model that adds flexibility in how you handle actions in your code."  

I've downloaded the iOS SDK (a whopping 2.49GB) and hope to have a little play with this later in the weekend.
