I want to be able to convert a mouse coordinate into a point suitable for -hitTest:'ing on my root layer. I can convert from the mouse coordinates to the view's coordinates, but then I am not sure how to proceed.
There doesn't seem to be any API for converting between the coordinates of a view and its root layer. You could probably do it by getting the root layer's transform property, and then running the point in view coordinates through that.
I had been using the convenient assumption that the two coord systems are identical, which they usually are (but I had never tried changing the screen resolution, q.v.)
CALayers don't have this bounds/frame distinction
They do, actually. The bounds is the internal view of the coordinate system, and the frame is the external view.
BUT when I use Quartz Debug to double the scale factor, GeekGameBoard breaks, as if mouse movements/locations were halved.
Wow, you're right. I'd never tried that.
it almost seems that 1 unit always corresponds to 1 pixel. How does Core Animation's geometry relate to NSView's resolution independent geometry?
I think you're right about the pixels. That's news to me; I'm stumped. Hopefully some CA expert can enlighten us.
