Yes but that’s seems like an awful lot of mucking around when all I want to do is position a view in a window! Surely the quickest most straight forward way of doing this is just to turn all Auto-Layout and set he Frame of the view manually - what could be simpler than that? I just want to know if this should work with Auto-Layout off and it’s just that layout isn’t getting called. If so when I’ll just scan the View Hierarchy and set the frames manually without using the “layout” method. I looked at setting constrains and XCode won't let me add any Leading/Trailing constraints to the view anyway, so even if I were to try to do it that way it doesn't seem like it’s possible from a NIB?
