Following up on this, I was able to compile my test app so that it runs on 10.6.8. And indeed the bug is still there. Very strange. This is a most trivial test app - load a pdf into a pdfview. When compiled on 10.9 with Xcode 5.0.2, the pages of the pdf do not refresh when scrolling (they remain blank) on 10.6.8. I tried enabling and disabling the core animation layer for the PDFView and also its superview, but to no effect.
I guess it’s time to use a DTS ticket. Cheers, Martin On 16 Nov 2013, at 08:01 am, Martin Hewitson <martin.hewit...@aei.mpg.de> wrote: > Michael, > > Thanks for the clue.
