Hi! Thanks Wyatt and Ricky for your answers.
The views have to visible at the same time. I thought of making an image out of this view as well but I didn't know how. I googled a little and this is what I found: UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(myView.bounds.size); [myView.layer renderInContext:UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext()]; UIImage *viewImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext(); UIGraphicsEndImageContext(); Cheers Chris On Sep 3, 2010, at 12:18 AM, Wyatt Webb wrote: > > On Sep 2, 2010, at 3:11 PM, Christian Ziegler wrote: > >> Hi all, >> >> I could use your help because I'm running out of ideas! >> >> Here's the situation.
