John - I have noticed some funny behavior with IB and autosizing views. In particular, I think what I observed was that if for instance a nib is saved with an empty window, the "setAutoresizesSubviews" property of the window's contentView gets archived as NO.

With the skepticism I've earned from that experience, I wouldn't be surprised if there were other scenarios in which a nib ends up getting saved with that property unexpectedly set to NO. Maybe an optimization attempt on the part of IB.

What I would do is add some logging to your app that spits out the autoresizesSubviews property all the way up the view chain (while ([thisView superview] != nil). See if you discover a culprit along the way.

For my particular case, I had to add code to my awakeFromNib to explicitly set the autoeresizesSubviews back to YES on the window's contentView.

Hope this helps (or at least jostles some new ideas :) )...

Despite setting the auto-resize mask, I found that the web view would not resize no matter what I did. I added a call to [HTMLSheetWebContainer setAutoresizesSubviews:YES] but that was ineffective.
After a bit of head-scratching and debugging, I realized that if I added any resizing object inside the NSBox in my nib, suddenly the web-view started resizing too. I can't explain why that worked, but it did. I ended up adding a tiny Custom View to the bottom corner of my NSBox, and all seemed to be well.
Is this a bug in the NSView system or am I missing something?
