I have a view controller on my storyboard set up with a tableview. I want to have another view as a floating view on top of the table view. So, I drag a view (actually a toolbar object) and drop it into the scene dock so that in code I can add it to the subviews and position it so that it floats. I have no questions about the coding; just laying out the view in storyboard.

How do I open the view object that I added to the scene dock so that I can add buttons to it, etc., and design it visually?

I know it’s possible since I did it accidentally in another project. The toolbar was in the view controller’s scene dock and displayed separately with it’s own scene dock. It’s very frustrating knowing it can be done, but not knowing how to do it!

    Okay, this is how I did it (also by accident).

    I had created an (IBAction) and was trying to connect to a button. So I drug a line from my code to the button (in the list of items). For some reason it wouldn’t connect so it seemed to hover over it for a few seconds.

    All of a sudden the view (with the button) popped out and displayed next to my uiviewcontroller just like you described. I had done this also by accident, but this is the first time I managed to get it to work for me.

    Let me know if this works for you as well!!!
