vertically aligning text in NSTableView row

Question

I have a small problem with NSTableView. When I am increasing height of a row in table, the text in it is aligned at top of row but I want to align it vertically centered!

Even if this is a very old question with an accepted answer, here's an alternate solution:

Go into the IB, select your NSTextField sitting in a NSTableCellView and add a new "Center Vertically in Container" constraint. You should also add horizontal constraints (which should probably be leading/trailing space set to 0 or whatever suits your needs).

Used this in an NSOutlineView and worked like a charm. Performance wasn't an issue in my case, as I didn't have many cells, but I would expect it's not worse than manually calculating sizes.
