Re: Draw NSView over QTMovieView

moving the entire content view may be the equivalent of killing a gnat with a bazooka. ;^) all that may be required is moving the QTMovieView. This is basic stuff supported by NSView's methods like - addSubview: and -removeFromSuperview: (make sure you retain and release appropriately)

Mr. Gecko, What code are you using to accomplish "fullscreen" mode? if you are using NSView's -enterFullScreenMode:withOptions: that method is not available on Tiger. Have you considered using a borderless window with a frame that matches the monitor being used for display? This would

You can add controls to your View in IB and then use a QTMovieLayer to display your movie (assuming you are Leopard only). Just make sure when you add the QTMovieLayer to your view's sub-layers that you use - insertSublayer:atIndex passing it an index of zero. This will keep all of the contr

Actually I don't think that would work because it's adding it to the window it self and the window isn't going fullscreen, only my fullscreen NSView is... i could try subclassing QTMovieView sense it's a subclass of NSView and draw my layer on top. Any suggestions? Mr. Gecko On Jan 20, 200

Re: Draw NSView over QTMovieView

Have you tried to use an overlay (child) window like in the Movie Overlay sample code at the ADC site? Alternately, you have the option of displaying your movie in a QTMovieLayer and adding various sublayers to accomplish the effect you want. On Jan 20, 2009, at 12:58 PM, Mr. Gecko wrote:

Draw NSView over QTMovieView

Hello, I'm working on adding full screen support to my application, I've got it working but I need to add controls to it and a mouse auto hide (shouldn't be too hard). When I tried to add controls over my movie, I placed it on the top layer in my NSView for going full screen, and it doesn't

Re: NSView over QTMovieView

Hi Joseph, as you see, you can't just add your custom view to the QTMovieView. One solution to your problem would be to add your custom view to a borderless window, and add that window to your NSWindow containing the QTMovieView. Another solution would be to use CoreAnimation and use a QT

NSView over QTMovieView

I'm working on an application to make measurements on each of the frames of a QTMovie. I have a window with a QTMovieView and a superimposed NSView. When the QTMovieView is offset from the NSView, My app draws to the NSView, but when they are exactly overlaid, I see nothing in the image. In fact
