I have worked with constraints in another system and one of the things I learned is that a collection of constraints must be "exercised" or driven from one extreme to the other in order to have confidence that they are correct. If you have a min or max size condition for the view beyond which the constraints are impossible to satisfy, but this in not what you want, then you need to change the constraints so that you get what you want under all conditions. The constraint engine is mathematically correct and does not lie. So if there is a problem, it is in how you are specifying and arranging the constraints or in the number of constraints you have. --Richard _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
