Only 13 (or 15, for the ObjC project) are ever available. All the rows show content (namely, the strings in the initialized array, 'dwarves') Interestingly enough, if I recreate this project on Xcode 5 on 10.8.5, all the rows (20) are shown, plus a few blank ones at the end, if I select "iPad" as the simulator target. This may be because this earlier version doesn't support retina, and so the entire "screen" of the simulator is shown. In the original versions, (running on Xcode 6.something on 10.10.?) the whole simulator screen is taller than my iMac's screen can display, even for "iPhone 5s" as the simulator target, thus I have to scroll the table view to see the remaining UITableViewCell instances. If I select "iPhone Retina (4-inch)" (again in the Xcode 5 project), I no longer get all 20 cells, and - in fact - the last cell visible, "Dwalin", is cut off so you can't see all of the cell, even with the (table) view scrolled down all the way. This problem appears to have something to do with Retina support/simulation. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
