You can get something similar to this by using split view, first select
B and C and make the a subview of a split view (under the layout menu),
set the springs in the center of the split view to on, then select A
and the split view containing B and C and make them a subview of split
view. Alternatively you could make them all a subview of a custom view
and override the setFrame, and set the sub frames manually.

I am familiar with layout managers in Java Swing. There does not seem
to be the
equivalent concept in cocoa. I have a simple window with three items
lined up as:
|--------------------| |--------------------|
| | | |
| | | B |
| | | |
| | |--------------------|
| A |
I | |--------------------|
| | | C |
| | | |
|--------------------| |--------------------|
Now I want the items to expand vertically and horizontally as I expand
and shrink the
container window. I simple-mindedly added "springs" to all items A, B,
and C in both
x and y directions. Now items expand but the expansion does not
respect boundaries of
other items, i.e., A expands into areas for B and C. The shrinkage
does not occur nicely
either. How do I do this correctly in IB to get this to work as in
Java Swing?
