Um, before we go API-hog-wild here, we need to rule out the possibility that 
the OP is just Doing It Wrong™. Because I’m 99.9999% certain that the OP is 
just Doing It Wrong™:

So, he’s resizing the view using setFrame**, which is to say he’s not really 
using Auto Layout at all. What he apparently wants is *manual* resizing and 
repositioning with automatic application of *manual* size limits. This is 
functionality that doesn’t exist in Cocoa, and it’s certainly not Auto Layout.


** Probably. There’s still about 0.0001% of doubt about it.
