[nfbcs] Auto layout

[Andy B.]

See the other email I sent on this subject. The basics are:
1. Choose the simulator under product>destination.
2. Run the project with CMD+R.
3. When the simulator appears in the foreground, left click it with
VO+SHIFT+SPACE.
4. With quick nav turned on, navigate your user interface.
5. Choose a control by navigating to it with arrow keys.
6. Press VO+CMD+SHIFT+F3 to report position and control size.


Note: I love writing apps on MAC along with web development/design because
step 5 (checking size/position) works anywhere in the system. I tested it
with elements on the desktop and Apple system applications such as Safari
and Mail. It definitely has increased my ability to be creative.

OK so how do you determine the position of controls in the simulator
voiceover I'm still not sure how to do this
