Re: CALayer contentScale initialization, where to do it?

2012-06-17 Thread David Duncan
contentsScale won't matter until you the layer into a window, so why not just 
assign it when you add the layer as a sublayer?

 I know, see my first message. It's the initialization I'm talking about, this

That works for sub-layers if the root has been set up already, but when do you 
suggest to set the view's root layer contentsScale?

Turns out that my problem was caused by the time the NSView's root layer was 
set up:

In previous AppKit versions, NSView's -setLayer: -wantsLayer: needed to be 
outside of -initWithFrame: because for whatever reason, setting it up in 
-initWithFrame: didn't work (it simply was reset).


On Lion this seems to have been fixed - which I didn't realize before - and the 
contentsScale of the root layer and its sub-layers is set by the framework 
automatically during view initialization/nib loading.


So problem solved, thanks guys!

Markus

Same concept applies. Set it when you assign the layer or add the view.

 I usually create the layers (if there's a fixed number of them) in the view's

Is this strategy documented somewhere? The High-Resolution Guide says to avoid 
looking at the windows backingScaleFactor at all, but it's very sparse on 
details about supporting CALayer.

https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/GraphicsAnimation/Conceptual/HighResolutionOSX/Introduction/Introduction.html

talks a little about layers but is rather unclear on how and when to initalize a 
layer contentScale properly. I don't recall reading about avoiding 
backingScaleFactor, though.

That's the same document I was referring to. But it also contains this very 
useful section, titled Manage Core Animation Layer Contents And Scale: 
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/GraphicsAnimation/Conceptual/HighResolutionOSX/CapturingScreenContents/CapturingScreenContents.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40012302-CH10-SW27

Specifically, it looks like you want to implement 
-layer:shouldInheritContentsScale:fromWindow: on your layer delegates.
