I tried drawing a rect around the whole frame like so:
- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)dirtyRect
{
NSBezierPath *path = [NSBezierPath bezierPathWithRoundedRect:[self

[[NSColor whiteColor] set];
[path stroke];
[super drawRect:dirtyRect];
}
..and I get the same result
You're flailing. The scattergun approach never works for coding. Look
up the right documentation: "Cocoa Drawing Guide", and also the
supporting documentation for NSView.
1. the <dirtyRect> passed is exactly what it implies.
2. the rect you need to be drawing is [self bounds] which is the
locally adjusted frame rectangle. Note that [self frame] is typically
(but not always) the same size but has a different location. If you
are programming with views you definitely need to know the difference.
3. There's no need to call [super drawRect] as it doesn't do anything
(unless this is a sub-subclass of NSView and you know different).
