I IB 3.2.1 in Snow Leopard, open any nib file and choose Layout > Show Clipping Indicators. Little + signs will appear over every view that suffers from this problem. Click a + sign, and the offending view will expand to its full, non-clipped size.
My understanding is that clipping doesn't matter in Leopard or newer, and maybe even older. I sometimes can't find any practical way to resolve the issue, so I leave it as is. I haven't noticed any adverse consequences. Am I wrong to do this?
