Seems to be saying don't use -setFlipped: unless you really know what you're
doing. That concurs with your own advice about not using setFlipped unless
you're locking focus on the image to get a flipped context for drawing. I'm
not,
Did you read the explanation of flipped contexts vs flipped images, and how
to draw an image right side up into a flipped context?
Flipped contexts are not deprecated.
Do you have or can you obtain access to the 2007 WWDC videos? :-)

(Also, again for others following along, on 10.6 you just pass YES for
respectFlipped in -[NSImage
drawInRect:fromRect:operation:fraction:respectFlipped:hints:]. The
implementation is quite similar to the method Paul gives in the post.)

hi all,
I just ported a huge code base to Cocoa, Core Graphics, Core Audio, and

noticed that i couldn't do easily in Cocoa or any other 64 bit OSX API.
So just in case anyone knows a way to do the things listed below

Thanks Stephen, that's the piece of the puzzle I was missing. I was assuming
