You're probably filling your gradient into the rect passed in drawRect.
That rectangle just represents the dirty part of your view. If you had
a solid color to draw, you could just fill the rect, but with a
gradient you will get your gradient, top to bottom, within this
possibly small rect within your view.
Try drawing the gradient into [self bounds] instead. This describes
the location of the entire view in its own coordinate system.

Hi All,
This is something that I haven't seen before. I have a custom view
that inherits from NSView directly and just draws a gradient
background. In IB I've placed an NSSlider on the view which works
fine. The problem comes when drawRect in my custom view is invoked,
I draw the gradient and a 1px line at the top of the view, but the
line also gets draw just above the NSSlider! logging shows the
following
1) resize window - drawRect is called and the line above the slider
disappears
2) move slider - drawRect is called from my gradient view but with
the frame of the slider. The line then appears.
Is this a known issue with NSSlider and a custom view or have I
missed an idiosyncracy of NSControls.
Thanks in adavnce,
Jonathan
