In Xcode 8 we can use struts and springs style layout until we add an explicit 
constraint.

The idea seems to be that the strut + spring definition get turned into 
constraints.

However, querying NSView -constraints returns nothing in this case, nor does 
the debug view hierarchy.

Is it just that the constraints are private in this case?

And what relevance does NSView -translatesAutoresizingMaskIntoConstraints add 
to the mix now now that we seem to have an auto detection of when we add 
constraints? 
Is it just a legacy behaviour now?

I don’t use the strut and spring method, normally adding whatever constraints I 
need.
But sometimes I think I am missing trick by not using the simpler s + s route 
in some cases.

However a lot of my UI features wrapping text and this is just a pain to 
implement pre 10.11.

Even on 10.12 s + s and text wrapping and textfields don’t seem to get on well.

Thanks

J
