Hi, guys.
I have a problem using Auto Layout in Cocoa. What I want achieve is
simple: I have two custom views, say, Left and Right. I want Left to be
always 100 wide and Right to be flexible, ie resize with the Window:
+----------+---------------------------+
| | |
| Left | Right |
| 100 wide | flexible |
| | |
+----------+---------------------------+
I tried H:|[left(100)][right(>=100)]| as follows:
- (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification {
NSView *contentView = self.window.contentView;
DummyView *left = [[DummyView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
left.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = NO;
left.backgroundColor = [NSColor yellowColor];
[contentView addSubview:left];
DummyView *right = [[DummyView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectZero];
right.translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints = NO;
right.backgroundColor = [NSColor greenColor];
[contentView addSubview:right];
NSDictionary *views = @{
@"left" : left,
@"right" : right,
};
// what am I doing wrong?
[contentView addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint
constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"H:|[left(100)][right(>=100)]|" options:0
metrics:nil views:views]];
[contentView addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint
constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"V:|[left]|" options:0 metrics:nil
views:views]];
[contentView addConstraints:[NSLayoutConstraint
constraintsWithVisualFormat:@"V:|[right]|" options:0 metrics:nil
views:views]];
}
The DummyView:
@interface DummyView : NSView
@property (copy) NSColor *backgroundColor;
@end
@implementation DummyView
- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)dirtyRect {
[_backgroundColor set];
NSRectFill(self.frame);
}
@end
The resulting window looks as follows:

+----------+----------+---------------------+
| | | |
| Left | empty | Right |
| 100 wide | space | flexible |
| | | |
+----------+----------+---------------------+
Why is there an empty space (100 wide) between Left and Right? I also
tried to set the width constraint of Left using
+constraintsWithVisualFormat:options:metrics:views:, but I get the same
result. Am I missing something here?

Thanks in advance and best,
Tae
