I have a program with tableview/details of core data object. One of the attributes is an image (it only appears in the details). I think it's best to save just the path to the image file, rather than the image itself (it seems to me that core data files with images are much bigger than the images, even if there is little more than that...).
Since it is supposed that the user drags the image to the imagewell, I thought that it would be appropriate to bind the imagewell to the array controller (AC) using "Value path" (AC.selection.image). However, this doesn't do anything (the imagewell accepts the image dragged there, but it keeps there when we change selection).
It seems likely to me that I must implement some "Value Transformer", but not the ones which are available (NSUnarchiveFromData and NSKeyedUnarchiveFromData), because I tried those already...
Am I right in this supposition? And if so, what value transformer would that be? Is it something that I'll have to define? Or is this altogether impossible?
Maybe I should add that I'm still using OSX 10.6, and thus some hypothesis seem to be ruled out...
Thanks
