Hi, I'd like to create a custom view based on Core Animation, namely, a layer-hosting view. In other words, I'd like to directly manipulate layers in my code rather than using children NSView's.
The custom view is like a matrix consisting of cells. Each cell is represented with a separate CALayer. However, certain cells should contain standard buttons like if they were "child views" of those cell layers. In other words, when I move the cell layer, the button needs to move synchronously; when I hide the cell layer, the button needs to hide as well. I would like to use the standard NSButton control, to avoid reinventing the wheel. But if I just place the button as a first-level child view of the custom view, it will not be associated with its parent cell layer. I also cannot access and manipulate NSButton's root layer to add it as a sublayer to the cell layer, AFAIK. So what is the best way around? Thanks!
