Re: CATransition + NSView mask
Sean, Thanks very much for the link, the example project is fundamentally doing the same things that I'm trying to accomplish, without the linked-list functionality. I ran the app and noticed that the animating views were also being clipped by the window. After seeing this example it makes sense that the views being transitioned would only be clipped by the window, as there isn't anything else to clip the transition images. Maybe I'll try to add my view as a subview and see if that works. But, in my case there are other views that are being covered by the transition images as the animation occurs. Do the animator proxies for the NSViews have any sense of layers? Kind of like the idea of sending something back or forward in an view order? -- Evan On Aug 11, 2009, at 10:43 AM, Sean Kline wrote: I am experiencing some strange subview appearance issues, but it may be unrelated.

Re: CATransition + NSView mask
Evan, According to Cocoadev.com, Animator proxies can be used with or without layer-backed mode. Here is the page that mentions this: http://www.cocoadev.com/index.pl?CoreAnimation I hope that helps.
