objective c - Views not displaying correctly after adding them to NSStackView programatically -

so, i'm trying add views (nstextfield in example) nsstackview:

i've added nsstackview instance xib file, linked outlet widgets document. in ...didloadnib i'm doing this:

nstextfield *tf = [[nstextfield alloc] init]; tf.stringvalue = @"124"; [tf setframesize:nsmakesize(100, 20)]; [widgets addview:tf ingravity:nsstackviewgravityleading]; nslog(@"%f - %d", nsheight(tf.frame), [tf hasambiguouslayout]);  nstextfield *tf2 = [[nstextfield alloc] init]; tf2.stringvalue = @"123"; [tf2 setframesize:nsmakesize(100, 20)]; [widgets addview:tf2 ingravity:nsstackviewgravityleading]; nslog(@"%f - %d", nsheight(tf2.frame), [tf2 hasambiguouslayout]); 

textfields placed stackview, they're placed same position, i.e. second overlaps first completely. still can select first [space+tab].

here's console output:

xib , result screenshots:

there's no constraints added stackview. stackview should vertical. there dynamic amount of textfields added stackview.

you need set translatesautoresizingmaskintoconstraints property of text fields false.

normally, shouldn't if view being placed other code. is, expect stack view decide whether property should on or off because it's in control of placing view hierarchy. however, there's bug in nsstackview regards through 10.10, have turn off yourself.

the clue set of unsatisfiable constrains include ones of type nsautoresizingmasklayoutconstraint.
