Hi,

This is my first time taping into CA and I've been having some issues with rendering. There we're some minor issues with a few custom views and drawing, but I've figured out ways to get around them; things that are fine when setWantsLayer is NO but show up when YES. I've now caught the anti-aliasing bug that have been reported in a few posts. I guess I can't see how "it would be really hard to address" is an acceptable answer, although as a developer, I can fully understand it. All text in the view(s) go from being beautiful without CA backing to jagged and some letters appearing to be "bolded".

So, I thought of a conceptual work around for this: I'm doing some fairly simple transitions in the contentView of a window. Maybe I could get rid of the aliasing problem by turning on setWantsLayer only right before the transition and turn it off after it's done. After a few different tests, I can't get CA to work unless I call setWantsLayer in awakeFromNib or from IB. Is this a suitable workaround? Is there some method to flush the view and setup CA that I need to call?

I'm just surprised the anti-aliasing issue hasn't had more discussion. I've seen a few posts on forums and such but no real solutions or suggestions. Is there an answer I'm not finding?

Thanks,
Ben Einstein
