NSTableCellView only enforces a layout when its rowSizeStyle is not .Custom. Other rowSizeStyle values are typically only used for source lists. Normally, there's no obstacle to rearranging the views within the cell view however you want. > If IB won’t let you put the image where you want it, you can always go back > to the text only cell, and add your own custom image subview. The only difference between those two ready-made objects in the library are the presence of the image view and the connection from the table cell view's imageView outlet to it. If the table cell view were doing something you don't want it to, disconnecting the outlet would be the same as starting from a text only cell and adding an image view manually. >> Once I get my views in place, I'll have to hook them to the view controller, >> correct?
