can someone please explain to me how to set a view's minimum required size (bounds) to display all its contents?

You'd have to write your own method to do this - usually named "- sizeToFit" as in NSBox, NSControl, NSText, etc. If your view contains subviews, then your "sizeToFit" method might iterate through them all, using NSUnionRect() to keep adding up all their frames. Then you can adjust your "container" view accordingly.


If you're doing custom drawing, etc. then you should already know the metrics of all your graphical elements since you had to determine where to draw them in the first place.

It entirely depends on what your view contains and how it's built. Without further details, it's hard to make a solid suggestion.
