trying to
figure out the filtered references, this might do what you want (as
long as
XCode respects @selector() in AppleScripts). It is probably pretty
expensive, so I would only run it once, and then change the size
accordingly
if edits result in data being to large for the current one. This
might not
work at all, but you'll get an idea of where to start looking. No
promises.
:) Good luck.
set sizeList to the cell size of every cell of table column
"yourTableColumn" --gets a list of {width,height} lists
set widthList to item 1 of each item in sizeList --item 1 of
{width,height}
is width
set sortedWidthList to (call method "sortedArrayUsingSelector:" of
widthList
with parameter @selector(compare:))
set width of table column "yourTableColumn" to last item in
sortedWidthList
I think that sortedArrayUsingSelector: will sort ascending. If I'm
wrong,
try "first item in sortedWidthList" instead of last item. :)

Subject: Re: Horizontal scroller in table view
The horizontal scroller is not appearing because there is nothing to
scroll
to. As you say, the column has the same width as the table view width.
The
horizontal scroller appears only if the column (or the sum of all
columns)
is wider than the table view width. There is no command that means
"make
this column as wide as the widest string value in any of its cells" -
the
column known nothing about the cells. If you want the column to be
wider, it
is up to you to make it wider. m.
So, this would be the command meaning "make this column as was as the
widest string value of this column"?
And where should I put this code? I make my table with the "append"
command; should I place your code just after "append"?
