I have an NSTableView which I let the user pick the display font for.
After adjusting all the cells to use the font, I want to pick the
ideal row height for the tableview.

[font defaultLineHeightForFont] + 1

works in some situations, but is wildly off in others.

Interface Builder gets it right. How does it determine what row
height to use for the table?

That's a good question, and I hope someone has a good answer.

The only reliable way I have found to do this is to measure sample string in the desired font to get the bounding box.
