With the built “iLifeControls.framework” in the same folder of “YOURAPP.xcodeproj” :

  1. XCode -> Build your app if never done

  2. XCode -> Folder “Ressources” (Leftbar) -> Add (right clic on folder) -> Existing Frameworks…
    -> choose “iLifeControls.framework”
    -> Choose “Relative to Build product” for “reference Type” -> Add

  3. XCode -> Double clic “MainMenu.nib”

  4. InterfaceBuilder -> Select the “Classes” tab

  5. XCode -> Clic “iLifeControls.framework” (leftbar, in the folder “ressources”), the list of the headers of the framework appears

  6. Xcode + Interface Builder -> From Xcode drag one by one the headers on the “MainMenu.nib” window (InterfaceBuilder) on the Treeview (or ListView) of the classes until there is no error msg (normally if you select all the headers and drag them with no error msg, it’s ok) - see above the ankur msg

  7. InterfaceBuilder -> Select a window of your app
    -> Inspector panel -> Select “Custom class” -> choose a iLifeControls class (ex: NFIWindow)

  8. Finder -> Copy “iLifeControls.framework” to your built app directory (/build/release/ or /build/debug/)

  9. XCode -> “Build and Go”

Note : For a stand-alone working app, you must right clic your build app -> “view content..” in the finder
-> open the “content” folder
-> in the “Content” folder create a new folder named “Frameworks”
-> In that new “Frameworks” folder copy/paste “iLifeControls.framework”
-> always in the finder double clic your built app… it works (for me) !

Note2: this dosen’t initiate the topbar and bottombar heights you must add code/outlet - see sources

Hope it will help new -very new - cocoa dev like me
Correct me if there’s mistakes

It has a hard coded height, however there is commented code that produces a working toolbar background height for the proper toolbar except for the limitation that if you set the toolbar mode from normal to small or vice versa there are rendering artifacts left behind. If not I will post my fix if I ever find the proper private override/drawing method.</p> Has anyone done any work on fixing up the NFIWindow toolbar?
