Hey Jeff -

The expectation of drawRect is that it will repaint the entire invalid area. I don't think there is a way to do additive drawing on each call to draw rect. If you'd like to re-use and erase portions of the same picture, you could draw to a bitmap context that you keep around and draw that during draw rect.

Hi,

I'm trying to do some animation where each time drawRect is called it's drawing over what was previously drawn, but something is erasing the view. I've setBackgroundColor for the window to clearColor so it's no longer drawing the default stripes but now it's erasing to black.

Any ideas?

thanks
Jeff
