I have a custom box that I've made that is a subclass of NSBox
. I override the drawRect:
method and draw a gradient in it like this (assuming I already have a start
& end
color):
-(void)drawRect:(NSRect)dirtyRect {
NSGradient *gradient = [[NSGradient alloc] initWithStartingColor:start endingColor:end];
[gradient drawInRect:dirtyRect angle:270];
[gradient release];
}
Now this box is added as a subview of a prototype view for a NSCollectionView
. In the view's original state it looks like this:
And after scrolling the view out of sight and back in again, it looks like this:
Why is my gradient getting corrupted like that, and how can I fix it? Thanks!
Your problem is you're drawing in dirtyFrame
, not the entire rectangle of the box. I have no idea if this is correct, but try this:
-(void)drawRect:(NSRect)dirtyRect {
NSGradient *gradient = [[NSGradient alloc] initWithStartingColor:start endingColor:end];
[gradient drawInRect:[self bounds] angle:270];
[gradient release];
}
