Right. Setup code for objects from nibs should usually go in -awakeFromNib. > As for the drawRect: override, it was my understanding that the IK*View > objects didn't do any of their drawing in drawRect: but instead were done via > CALayers. I could be misinformed on this point though. Right again, basically, although I think they use direct OpenGL for drawing. This unfortunately makes it extremely difficult to customize the display of these views, since the OpenGL surface covers up any regular drawing. I tried pretty hard to extend the image-browser a few years ago and eventually gave up. —Jens _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
