The difficulty is that you’ve never actually said what the problem was with *not* using autolayout.

Assuming that the subviews of the content view are already in the view hierarchy (they were there in the nib, or you just added them programmatically), and autolayout is turned off for the content view, then the way to set the size and position of the subviews is to call ‘setFrame:’ on each one. That’s the way it was done before autolayout existed, and it should still work just fine when autolayout is not turned on. The ‘layout’ method *isn’t* the obvious or correct place to do this, because it’s API that belongs specifically to the autolayout ecosystem. Did you try just setting the frames of your subviews? _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
