Can I create a tab view in toolbar like the app Photos (Yosemite)? I want only a segmented buttons, without images.
I have tried to set the style of TabView Controller into 'Toolbar', but it creates also images.
You want to use a NSSegmentedControl for that. That will give you the buttons without the tab view

Is there is a NSToolbar trick to integrate a add ("+") button in the right lower toolbar corner like Safari does it?
That's an NSTitlebarAccessoryViewController with a layoutAttribute of .Right.
You can configure it with a view (e.g. the plus button view), and add the view controller to the window with window.addTitlebarAccessoryViewController(NSTitlebarAccessoryViewController)
In Xcode 6, I am designing an app whose view has a scroll view and a toolbar. However, when I run my app in iOS Simulator, the toolbar stays where it was placed in interface builder and does not stay directly at the bottom as I scroll. How can I fix this?
Thanks for your help.
Have you placed the toolbar inside the scroll view? If so, you will want to move it outside of the scroll view and anchor it instead at the bottom of the parent view. Then you will want to reduce the size of your scroll view so that it does not get cut off by the toolbar.
I've been looking at this apple document:
http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/AppleHIGuidelines/Controls/Controls.html
In the Window-Frame Controls section it deescribes
window-frame controls in the Mail toolbar
(source: apple.com)
However, there's no description on how to actually create this interface. I've tried using NSToolBar but it doesn't seem to be used for this purpose and there doesn't seem to be a way to drag a NSButton into this area in InterfaceBuilder.
Any pointers on how to create this type of toolbar?
Drag object Toolbar from Object Library to you window. Double click on toolbar. Drag button from the Object library into the Allowed Toolbar Item section. 1-click on button in toolbar manage attributes toolbar item section, double click manage button attributes. Connect action with your new toolbar item.
I wonder if anyone knows how to get this "Lion-style" toolbar items like we can see in Apple Mail application? Are they all custom or can be found anywhere? They are surely not present in IB.
Or are they just styled buttons and segmented controls?
The "Lion-Style" toolbar items would appear to be just Rounded Textured buttons with the image and alternate image set. You can drag these buttons directly from the IB library to your toolbar.
I am trying to add a custom button in the new Xcode 4 Interface Builder. In the old one with Xcode 3, you could just drag in any of the button types, change their style to custom, and add in your own image to make a custom button. Now it seems the "custom" style is missing, and when the image is changed, it is just overlaid on one of the other button types. How can I add custom buttons now?
EDIT: I see that the custom button option exists on the iOS Xcode 4 still, but it seems to now be gone for a OSX Cocoa application. Why is this and how can I recreate this funcionality?
I found that you can recreate the custom button by making a button with Style: Square, Type: Switch, Visual: Bordered and Transparent unchecked, and then add your own image in the Image box.
