Are you calling -drawLayer:inContext: yourself? if you are, don't do that - just call -setNeedsDisplay on the layer, it will do the right thing. But at the same time, you could probably simplify this a lot by creating CGImages with your content and then assign those images as the contents of your layers from the main thread. This is almost certainly likely to be simpler and less error prone (as well as allowing for a cleaner handoff of content). -- David Duncan Apple DTS Animation and Printing _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
