When I stop right after initializing the NSRect local variable, the
debugger reports miniscule values for the portions of the rectangle, like it
got overlaid with integers instead of float values.

Where are columnCount and rowCount declared, and as what types?

They are class variables, type int.

In general the naming convention used in Objective-C is that class names start with capitals and variable names start with lower-case characters (both use bumpy case which I think you know). For instance NSWindow (class) and aWindow (variable). However in your code you have LASize, which looks a whole lot like NSSize (which happens to be a struct). However you're assigning sender to it which is of type id. This introduces some confusion, since you assumedly assign an object variable to something that looks very much like a struct type. This may not be a bug (we don't know what type sender or LASize are so it's hard to say), but it leaves the code nearly unreadable for the casual observer. If you want someone to help you out, try to post more clear code. In a more general sense, it's good to write code that follows the general naming conventions anyway since if you ever have to share your code or go just back and read it in a year you'll have less work understanding it.
