I think the bug is that IB hides the existence of the sub-NIB. If IB presented the sub-NIB with all of the usual placeholders and put a Shared User Defaults Controller into it when you set a binding on it, etc., that would help make this clear. Also, it's a bug that IB will blithely let you create connections from objects in the sub-NIB to objects outside the sub-NIB when those connections won't survive to runtime. >> Hopefully that works for you. > > It does, thanks. You're welcome.

How so? To my knowledge, Cocoa doesn't yet support determining row height automatically based on the height of cell views (presumably determined by auto layout). UIKit has that, but AppKit does not. And it's not clear to me if it makes sense for a table that can have multiple columns, since each column's cell view can be different. You set the table view's row height on the table view itself, on the Size inspector. There is an Automatic mode, but that uses the row size style from System Preferences. I guess I do see that when you first switch from Automatic to Custom, IB uses the tallest of the cell views of the table's columns to pick the new default value for the row height, but you can just change it from that value. Anyway, the table view gets its row and cell views from the delegate. It is true that -makeViewWithIdentifier:owner: will consult the registered cell view NIB for the identifier and, when the table view is loaded from its NIB, the mapping of identifiers to NIBs is pre-populated with the cell view sub-NIBs embedded in the table view NIB. But if you modify that mapping early enough, the table view should never know anything about the vestigial cell view in its NIB.
