Could really use the help of a custom view expert

Hi

I've been struggling with a set of complex views for my palette user interface and have literally been fighting with the same stupid issues off and on for almost a year. I've never, in my 15 years of programming come up against a problem as difficult as making a user interface using Cocoa views. Some of it is easy enough, but it's the exact placement stuff that is giving me so many headaches. I flat don't understand why perfectly logical settings don't work and need the hands-on help of someone who knows this stuff cold.

The main issues I've never been able to figure out are why, despite setting views to be pinned to the top of a containing view, it ALWAYS snaps to the bottom when I change the size. "Read the documentation" suggestions aren't going to cut it any more as I've been doing that for a year and am not making any headway.

If there is someone who would be willing to take a look at my project help me figure out what I'm doing wrong it would be hugely appreciated. I need to finish this thing and despite trying every trick and ugly hack I can think of, nothing works.

This should probably be done off-list so if there are any gurus willing to help, contact me directly

-Ken
