So then how does this cause the issue you you mention above? Simply referencing the outlet isn't going to cause additional views to be added. Unless you are assigning a new label to the outlet (which is counter intuitive to the concept of an outlet in the first place) the only label you'll get is the one from the nib. But even that said, on shipping versions of iOS, the cell's size isn't necessarily set inside of cellForRowAtIndexPath:, so if you want to layout with respect to the size of the cell you still aren't going to have that information at this point. -- David Duncan _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
