I have filed a radar on this, and have heard from Apple engineers that it is definitely something they know about. I suggest (frustrating as it may be) to file a dupe radar and try to get this bumped up on the list. At a minimum the docs should be clearer on all this do we aren't wasting our time.

Thanks for the info. I'll try to reproduce it in a basic project and them file a radar myself. And thanks also for the pointer to the AutoLayout sample code.

Cheers,
