has NSView changed

[munkees]

I am learning Cocoa with Objective-c using the book, I am in chapter 8 which has a Dot View program, it use NSBezier, the book was writen for Mac OS X 10.2 I am using xcode 2.3 on Tiger. When I run the program it does not draw the dot.

Has the x/y start point moved from the bottom left corner?

Just don't under stand why it does not display any Ideas

Nope. According to the documentation (at file:///Developer/ADC%20Reference%20Library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/CocoaDrawingGuide/index.html on your harddrive under a normal XCode install) the coordinate system is still based from the bottom left.

As to why it does not display, posting your drawing code may help. There are a number of things that could cause it not to display (including your drawRect or other drawing method never being called at all).

You need to update the view, so let's say the mouse clicked on the view, in the mouseDown method put this at the end:

[self setNeedsDisplay:YES];

Whatever tells NSView to display put:

[viewObject setNeedsDisplay:YES];
if you are calling it from a function outside of NSView.

It is possible to flip the coordinate system.

I suggest you post your code.
