You can use a regular NSControl subclass as the cell view of a table view. It does not need to be embedded in an NSTableCellView.

It sounds like a good enhancement request to file here might be: "When converting a table view from cell-based to view-based, Interface Builder should automatically add constraints that fill the cell views." --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
