Hi,
I have a custom view that draws half a frame and a gradient:
- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)rect {
// This results in darker separator line at left side.
[[NSColor colorWithCalibratedWhite:0.18 alpha:1.0] set];
NSRectFill(NSMakeRect(NSMinX(rect), NSMinY(rect), 1, NSHeight(rect)));
// This results in lighter separator line along bottom.
[[NSColor colorWithCalibratedWhite:0.41 alpha:1.0] set];
NSRectFill(NSMakeRect(NSMinX(rect) + 1, NSMinY(rect), NSWidth(rect) -
1, NSHeight(rect)));
// Draw background
NSGradient *gradient = [[NSGradient alloc] initWithStartingColor:
[NSColor colorWithCalibratedWhite:0.63 alpha:1.0] endingColor:[NSColor
colorWithCalibratedWhite:1.0 alpha:1.0]];
[gradient drawInRect:NSMakeRect(NSMinX(rect) + 1, NSMinY(rect) + 1,
NSWidth(rect), NSHeight(rect) - 1) angle:90.0];
}
In Interface Builder I set an Async progress indicator and a text
field as subviews of the custom view. When I turn off the progress
indicator however, or when I update the string value of the text
field, the drawing from the drawRect method above is drawn offset from
its origin, instead drawing at the origin of either of the subviews,
resulting in spurious lines being drawn where there should only be
background (the gradient). (You can see a screenshot of the effect
here: http://sintraworks.com/private/RenderingMess.png)
As you can see from the image it looks like the view first draws
itself correctly, then gets drawn for each of the other subviews, with
its origin offset to match the origin of the subview in question. I
don't understand why this happens.
I have tried several workarounds in IB, among others by promoting the
async arrows and text field to not be subviews of the custom view, but
simply sit on top of it, but none of the solutions seems to make any
difference. Any pointers as to what the issue may be and how I can
solve it?
Kind Regards,
António Nunes
