Each of my layers is actually a layer hierarchy. The problem I'm seeing is that if the image context's size is larger than the layer being drawn, the resulting image is smaller than it should be, even for a single layer hierarchy.
For example, let's say my layer is 100 px wide, but the image context I create is 200 px wide. I render the image, then use that image to create a UIImageView. The pixels in the resulting view are not 100 px wide, but rather 50 px (I'm guessing at the exact width, but it appears to be about that). Drawing the second view, hopefully, is as easy as translating the CTM. It was NOT enough to set the view's frames. -- Rick On Aug 15, 2011, at 15:46 , Kyle Sluder wrote: > On Mon, Aug 15, 2011 at 2:47 PM, Rick Mann <rm...@latencyzero.com> wrote: >> Hi.
