That would be trading CPU for RAM (worse, for GPU RAM), which comes with its own set of performance problems. Also, last I heard, drawing text into offscreen buffers disables sub-pixel antialiasing. Not noticeable with retina displays, but not everyone has those yet. Anyway, I still don't accept that drawing plain text in a scrolled view is too slow, unless the code is doing something wrong like trying to draw all 100k strings at once every time. I’d like to see the code behind the current implementation… —Jens _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
