I believe you need to set the scale of the layer to the scale of the device. Here is how we do it where appContentScaleFactor is a global variable we store the scale from at startup:
if ([[UIScreen mainScreen] respondsToSelector: @selector(scale)]) appContentScaleFactor = [[UIScreen mainScreen] scale]; if ([mainLayer respondsToSelector: @selector(setContentsScale:)]) mainLayer.contentsScale = appContentScaleFactor; On Aug 28, 2010, at 3:22 PM, Matt Neuburg wrote: > In my UIView's drawRect: I derive a CGLayer from the current context, draw > into it, and then draw the layer into the context (the view).
