IB is supposed to be an aid. I find it a hindrance. Its terminology
and operation amount to yet another language. You have to make that
language agree with your code. It is easier to define the things I
want in the code.
For example, I wanted a dozen buttons arranged in a circle and
responding to single and double taps. Without much trouble I was
able to write code that placed them where I wanted, made them work
as I wanted and allowed me to adjust the location and radius of the
circle. Perhaps IB could do this, but it was proving to be too much
work to learn it. My needs were simple, IB imposes a big threshold
to cross. This is only one example.

A very specific and somewhat contrived example, may I add. :) For
most UI development tasks IB makes your life a lot easier once you are
confortable with the basic concepts of how it works and how to use it.
Please don't put it aside as a waste of time.
