David thanks for the info about the drawing.
Im looking at the zombie error, and it seems the CALayer where Im putting the
animation its being deallocated, even have something like:
CALayer * quickEdit;
@property(nonatomic, retain)CALayer * quickEdit;
and in the .m file
quickEdit = [CALayer layer];
I think I tried also [self setAnimLayer:[CALayer layer]]
with same results,..
I will let you know,
...
...
I have tried this: Setting the customView to [customView setWantLayer:YES] in
the awakeFromNib.
in the updateTrackingArea:
quickEdit = nil;
NSImage * imge = [NSImage imageNamed:@"infoOffState.png"];
quickEdit = [CALayer layer];
quickEdit.contents = imge;
quickEdit.opacity = 0.0;
[[self layer] addSublayer:quickEdit];
NSRect rect = NSMakeRect(self.bounds.size.width - 25.0, 9.0, 15.0,
15.0);
quickEdit.frame = rect;
ta=nil;
ta = [[NSTrackingArea alloc] initWithRect:quickEdit.frame
options:NSTrackingActiveInActiveApp|NSTrackingMouseEnteredAndExited owner:self
userInfo:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:@"quickLook" forKey:@"view"]];
[self addTrackingArea:ta];
[ta release];
and it seems Im not getting a Zombie now after transitions. but when I add
another subview to the superview(the one which contains the customView), if
this subview its "on" the customView which has wantLayer == YES, then that
viewI just added its beneath the customView...
Any way to make it appear above... I guess this behavior its because the
customView its a layer backed view.
thx
Gustavo
