Giving a minimum size to my drawer worked.

However I think this absolutely is a bug. I would expect my views to vanish if the window is made too small and to reappear normally once the window is again large enough.

I also find it stange, that I can specify a drawing order in IB if overlapping views are not supported...

Anyway, thank you very much!

I tried to put all the content in a simple window and everything worked
fine until I resized the window to a size too small for the table view to be

would like the table view to occupy the unoccupied space of the drawer, no
matter how much that is. What am I doing wrong?

Nothing. The autoresizing algorithm freaks out if a view winds up with a zero or negative dimension. You need to specify a minimum size for this reason.

While I'm at it: Why is the table view drawn in the back, even though I set
it up to be in the very front. This worked when I put all the views in a
window instead of a drawer. The strange behavior that text fields are always
drawn on top forced me to use a label and a text field inside an oval NSBox
to get the oval edit fields under "cost". I would prefer to use an oval
NSTextFields with a label on top because they have the same shadow as the
other text fields. However this does not seem to be possible, because the
text fields are always drawn on top of the labels...

Cocoa does not support overlapping views.
