Eyal, I don’t have an answer for you, just a request for clarification. If a view has a low alpha setting, you expect the content behind it to show through, so your description sounds like normal behavior. However, I suspect you’re dealing with a real problem.
Are you saying that your view with low alpha is above other content in your app, but instead of the information which *should* show through, Yosemite is blending with other content—content from windows or the desktop behind your app? -- Charles On March 31, 2015 at 08:59:48, Charles Jenkins (cejw...@gmail.com) wrote: Eyal, I don’t have an answer for you, just a request for clarification.

I'm using the following code to draw the view [[NSColor colorWithDeviceRed:(float)42/255 green:(float)49/255 blue:(float)58/255 alpha:0.5] set]; NSRectFill([self bounds]); [[NSColor colorWithDeviceRed:(float)242/255 green:(float)110/255 blue:(float)80/255 alpha:1.0] set]; NSFrameRect([self bounds]); For some reason the view is showing through the windows/desktop behind the window where my view is located. Surly this is a manifestation of one of the (somewhat unwanted IMO) features of Yosemite but I've not been able to find where I can opt out of this. The window I'm drawing to is a custom window, if that matters TIA Eyal _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
