Hi Eric, I don't entirely follow this question, but I suspect I know what you're missing: the frame of a view is its location in the coordinate system of its superview. Its bounds is its location in its own coordinate system.
So this is okay [superview convertRect:[view frame]... And this is okay: [view convertRect:[view bounds]... But treating a view's frame as if it's in the coordinate system of itself is not alright. -Ken On Nov 12, 2010, at 8:47 AM, Eric Gorr <mail...@ericgorr.net> wrote: > I have changed the contentView of my NSWindow to be a NSView which return YES > for isFlipped. > > If I place a NSButton in the contentView of a window, I can do the following: > > NSRect r = [view frame]; > NSPoint origin; > > origin = [view convertPoint:NSZeroPoint toView:[[view window] > contentView]]; > > The r.origin will say something like ( 20, 14 ) and, when I convert the > point, I get back what one would expect ( 20, 14 ). > > The problem comes when I try to place a NSImageView in that same content view. > > The r.origin will say something like ( 20, 14 ), but, when I convert the > point, I get back ( 20, 78 ).
