Yes, Xcode 4 feels like a Windows app, not a Mac app. The idiotic modality it

Everything works except that I can't get drawRect to be called a second

Looks okay to me. Is there anything unusual about how you're creating
instances? The docs say +initialize is sent before any message is sent to the
*class*. So if you're using some variation of [[DBWord alloc] init...] I would
expect it to be called before the first time you ever call alloc.

Thanks all. I figured out what I was doing wrong. I was expecting a higher
