That should work.
Now: ... fixed distance TextField.width ≥ 33 fixed distance Label.width ≥ 56 fixed distance ... Result: No Ambiguity Label.width = 56 (never changes) TextField.width grows or shrinks to make all fit into the window. Can shrink to 0 (ignoring my width ≥ 33). TextField.width does not react to size of input. This auto layout seems to be a very useful feature; but sometimes it drives my crazy. By the way: there was in Xcode a way to test a nib without running the app. Can't find this anymore in 6.1. Where is this hiding?
