The help says "If you wish to change grouping behavior or other behavioral characteristics of the NSBox class, consider overriding setContentView:<file:///Developer/Documentation/DocSets/com.apple.ADC_Reference_Library.CoreReference.docset/Contents/Resources/Documents/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSBox_Class/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/NSBox/setContentView:> , sizeToFit<file:///Developer/Documentation/DocSets/com.apple.ADC_Reference_Library.CoreReference.docset/Contents/Resources/Documents/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSBox_Class/Reference/Reference.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/NSBox/sizeToFit>, or addSubview:<file:///Developer/Documentation/DocSets/com.apple.ADC_Reference_Library.CoreReference.docset/Contents/Resources/Documents/documentation/Cocoa/Reference/ApplicationKit/Classes/NSView_Class/Reference/NSView.html#//apple_ref/occ/instm/NSView/addSubview:> (inherited from NSView)."
maybe you didn't override the method "siezToFit" in your class managing the NSBox... --Reinhard Am 06.05.2010 um 16:01 schrieb Ingvar Nedrebo: Hi all, I'm seeing some strange behaviour using NSBox's sizeToFit method. When I send the message in my code, the box gets sized too small and clips it contents. To make sure it wasn't anything to do with my app, I created a brand new test project, added a box to the main window, and put a couple of labels and buttons inside the box. When I use Layout > Size to Fit in IB, the box is nicely fitted around its contents with proper margins as I would expect. In the app delegate's applicationDidFinishLaunching method I then send a sizeToFit message to the box: - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification { [box sizeToFit]; } The result is that the box is sized too small and clips its contents. As this is a brand new project where I've added a single line of code, I'm not sure what I could be doing wrong. Is this method working as expected for anyone else? _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
