Thanks for the tip, I've made that function simpler (displaying a red circle):
- (void)drawLayer:(CALayer *)theLayer inContext:(CGContextRef)theContext { CGRect theRect = CGRectMake(0.5, 0.5, 1, 1); CGContextSetRGBFillColor(theContext, 1, 0, 1, 1); CGContextFillEllipseInRect(theContext, theRect ); } On Mon, Apr 14, 2008 at 2:24 PM, David Duncan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Apr 13, 2008, at 12:01 AM, Greg Sabo wrote: > > Ah!
