Another possible way you could solve this problem (and potentially
improve the interface) is to group all three views in a split view,
so users can decide for themselves how much space to give to each
view. (Select the three views, go to Layout->Make subviews of->Split
View.) You would probably still have to set up springs and struts so
that the views resize properly with the pane, but once that's set up
you wouldn't have to worry about the distance between the views
changing. I don't know if a split view is appropriate for the
particular views in your app but it's worth considering. It gives so
much more flexibility for the user.
I recall that it can be quite frustrating putting things into split
views at first, if I recall correctly IB for some reason assumed I
wanted a horizontal split view and switching it back to vertical
ruined the layout... there was some trick I figured out eventually so
that I wouldn't have to lay everything out again which I would love
to share, but I can't remember what it was. It may have had something
to do with the order the views are selected in.
