What's the code equivalent to the autoresizing mask anchoring options in IB?
How can I get a NSTextField (or any object) to respect the autoresizing options below via code? I want to add new objects to the view dynamically, but when I increase the height of the view, they are anchored to the bottom left, as opposed to the top left as shown, and so new textfields are dropped on top of the old ones. Is this even p...

I am building a data entry form in my iPhone app, and there are more data fields than will fit on the screen.

How to unit-test IBOutlet connections ?
I've been trying to verify in my tests (GTM) that when a nib file is loaded, its IBOutlets were properly connected in InterfaceBuilder. However I keep getting nil references, despite calling [myViewController viewDidLoad] before asserting that the reference should exist. Are there any gotchas here, or should this be mocked somehow ? c...

Managing interface builder's window layout
I have my macbook pro hooked up to an apple cinema display. I want to work on my code on the laptop but have interface builder on the cinema display.

How can I fix the behaviour of UIPicker and UIDatePicker views when they are pushed to a landscape navigation controller?
I have found something I don't understand with the UIPicker and UIDatePicker views - when I make a view with either of these, centered at the top of the view, I set it horizontally to have all the auto resize options selected (Looks like: H<-->H in interface builder, third tab of the inspector in the red box). This works as expected whe...

How do I edit iPad-specific XIB after upgrading project to Universal
I have an app project that I upgraded to a Universal App for the iPad. XCode created a Resources-iPad folder and duplicated my .xib file in there with the -iPad tacked onto the file name. That's all well and good. But when I edit that XIB it doesn't seem to understand this is an iPad XIB. For instance, the Window object is 320x480 an...

Hi I want to run an OpenGlView in a second window. I can open this window "simualtion", but there is nothing to see, which I created in the Interface Builder.

Does Value Changed event work for Text Fields at all in Interface Builder?
Hi, I'm trying to set up methods to be executed when value of certain text field is changed and saved. I tried to hook up this method with Value Changed event in Iterface Builder.

How does one add additional items to NSMenu in Interface Builder?
I'm using Xcode for the first time. I've been following a tutorial, and I'm completely stumped by something that's surely trivial. I've dragged a "Menu" from the Library into my "MainMenu.xib" window. Double-clicking this menu makes it appear. No trouble thus far. Editing the three items is intuitive, as is deleting items. How on eart...
