I'm confused between your two claims. Above you say you have a view controller that displays a small view in the center of the screen. Below you say that this is the view controller's view (that is, the view assigned to the 'view' property). If both of these are true, then you've violated some expectation of UIKit. From the sounds of it, it is the one that expects that a view controller's consumes the entire screen (at least in the absence of view controller containment). If you want a simple view in the center of the screen with a fixed size, then the simplest way to do so is to make that view a subview of the view controller's view. If you set the autoresizingMask correctly, then that view won't be resized at all, and should maintain its position in its superview (if nothing else ensuring the subview remains at the correct size and position should be much easier than what it seems you are trying to do above). -- David Duncan _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
