I'm trying to use an NSSplitView, and have had no luck finding an interface builder palette for it, and it doesn't seem to be built in. I can of course just add an NSView and set it to be an NSSplitView, but then I can't set any of it's parameters within IB.

However, I had a look at the NIBs for a couple of programs that use the split views, and they seem to have all the controls in Interface Builder for them - how can I do this?

Well, I found the answer. For anyone who's interested:

See the docs on the NSSplitView class.

In the interface builder, you can select any two views, and pick
Layout->Make Subviews Of->SplitView from the main menu.

just for posterity...

I usually drag a custom view from the palette, then in the "custom class" dropdown in the inspector select NSSplitView for it. drag two views into the splitview, and you're set. They will automaticaly size themselves when the app is run.
