nstableview **very** basic question
I've been struggling with this for a few days...so time to ask, if I
may.
I am trying to emulate Scott Anguish's multiplication table in his
book. I cannot get tableview to show columns of constant width.
I have looked at the guides of Apple, tried to understand all the
nuances of tableview, scrollview, headers etc, looked at numerous
tutorials on NSTableview, (most a little dated), discerned that
perhaps I should be looking at NSTableColumn, and thought I had found
the answer doing this.
-(void) awakeFromNib
{
NSLog(@awakeFromNib: setting \sizeToFit\);
[tv sizeToFit];
}
where tv is declared as: IBOutlet NSTableView *tv;
As far as I can tell, the outlet is set correctly, NSLog is called at
the appropriate time.
What I get when I use the above code is the first couple of columns
varying in size, then the next n columns equally space.
If I have missed something in the documentation, I would appreciate a
pointer, but somehow, I cannot believe that it is this difficult to
do, but perhaps I am doing something that will become a lot easier
further into Hillegas tutorial?
Thanks in advance.

H. What are your columns' maximum sizes? These can be set in
Interface Builder, but to find out for sure, try something like this:
for (NSTableColumn* tc in [tv tableColumns]) {
NSLog(@maxWidth = %f, [tc maxWidth]) ;
}
