I created a new OS X Application with Xcode Version 7.2.1 (7C1002).

In the middle of the window I placed an NSTextField.

Xcode → Editor → Embed In… → Box.

Set Top, Bottom, Leading, Trailing of Box to SuperView (window) = Default 
Set Top, Bottom, Leading, Trailing of TextField to SuperView (box) = Default 
TextField width ≥ 200
TextField heigth = 20

1. Xcode tells me that TextField needs constraints for y position or height. 
Why?

2. When I run the app, I get told “Unable to simultaneously satisfy 
constraints:…”

3. I can resize the window so that the TextField clearly get smaller than 200.

None of these problems for a TextField outside of the box.

I know that thinking outside the box is considered a virtue, but being able to 
do autolayout in a box would also be a good think.

How can this be done?

Gerriet.
