I don’t see that anyone has yet asked the question of why the grid needs to have subviews. Implementing the rows and columns yourself means inventing your own duplicate API for managing them, but it’s likely not a lot of code, assuming you only need textual editing of one cell at a time (and can therefore use a single re-usable, movable text field for the editing). So, why can’t your spreadsheet-like grid be a single custom view that draws its own text and graphics in a grid-like pattern directly? > PS.
