As soon as I set up a binding for an NSTextField in Interfacebuilder, it clears the placeholder string (The gray text, which disappears as soon as you enter text).

I currently don’t understand, why binding the value should change the placeholder string too.

Any ideas?

    I just figured it out myself:

    As soon as I bind the value to some object I have to use the binding options to re-enable the placeholder string.

    In the bindings tab I can now set the value Null placeholder which then has the same effect.

    I find this a bit confusing but it seems to work.
