NSPanel removed in Xcode 8?

Question

In the past I can find Panel available in Interface Builder's Library, but in Xcode 8, I searched the whole library in storyboard editor, no Panel available. Has Apple just removed NSPanel or I got something wrong?

Answer 1

Assuming you want to add a second window (as a panel) to your storyboard, add a new window controller . Then select its window and change its class to NSPanel . In the attributes inspector you will find that your panel can then be changed to regular , utility or HUD .

For Cocoa apps, I find that Nibs/Xibs are sometimes easier to work with than storyboards.
