I solved this. With setAutoresizingMask: I can prevent the scrollview containing the tableview to grow with the window frame. Posting my solution for the sake of people that might have similar issues in the future.

NSRect bounds = [infoView bounds];
NSRect frame = [[searchWindow contentView] frame];
NSRect w_frame = [searchWindow frame];

w_frame.size.height += bounds.size.height;
w_frame.origin.y -= bounds.size.height;

// Locking the scrollview to the top
NSUInteger mask = [scrollView autoresizingMask]; // this was set in IB
[scrollView setAutoresizingMask:NSViewMinYMargin];

[NSAnimationContext beginGrouping];
[searchWindow setFrame:w_frame display:YES animate:YES];
[infoView setFrame:NSMakeRect(0.0, 0.0, frame.size.width, bounds.size.height)];

[[searchWindow contentView] addSubview:infoView];
[NSAnimationContext endGrouping];

// Making the scrollview autoresize again in all directions.
[scrollView setAutoresizingMask:mask];

Consider using NSDrawer. It can contain a content view (i.e. your info view) and can be attached to any side of a parent window, and be shown or hidden.

If you don't want to use this, however, just grab the content view's frame,

NSRect r = [[window contentView] frame]

and then call:

[[window contentView] setFrame:NSMakeRect(r.origin.x, r.origin.y, r.size.width, r.size.height + *however much you need*)];

Then set the frame of your subview and add it.

Hello,

I'm trying to do something simple, I have a NSWindow containing a NSTableView that resizes with the with the window. When I click on one element I want to display additional information in a subView that I'm adding with [[theWindow contentView] addSubview:infoView];
The problem is when I do this the infoView is overlapped with the scrollView. How can I make it appear below the other views in the window? (maybe making the window grow in size). Some code examples or pointers would be great. (http://i31.tinypic.com/2wf1f95.jpg this is what it should look like after adding the subview)


Thank you for your time.
