Someone could theoretically only provide them in a category which lives in the plugin bundle. > The reason I'm asking about this is that the Cocoa way of using the frame > rect to get and set view bounds makes it very hard to lay out a UI outside of > IB, particularly for things like push buttons where the padding below the > actual button is much more than padding at the top. It's difficult because you're supposed to lay it out in IB. Is there a specific reason you wish not to? --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
