That's weird that IB doesn't save the info. I've gotten it to work for me. Just a thought, did you press enter or click on another field after entering the autosave name before you saved the nib file? I had this problem when i was first learning how to tables and the column identifiers would never stick b/c i would type the name and then click another column header to do it again.


If you want to set a table view's autosave name programatically, i think the best place to do this would be in awakeFromNib or whatever initialization method you use.


You can also do the same thing for windows. If you look at a window's attributes in the info panel, you will notice a field for the window's title, and a seperate one for the window's name. The name they speak of here is an autosave name, and by giving it a name you're application will rememeber window size and position between launches.

    Well, I've tried everything and IB simply does not save my table's autosave name. I can enter a autosave name for the window and this works great.. but no autosave for a table. Could this be because may tables are within a tab pane?? Has anyone else had this problem?
