I subclassed NSScrollView to try and draw under my custom view. But I am seeing weird things.
Perhaps you should try to more concisely communicate what effect you're trying to achieve.

Ok, here it is: I want to have a certain object drawn at a constant position relative to the visible rectangle of my custom view (so that it's always visible). The problem was that the my custom view was in a scroll view that by default copies view content on scroll. As both you and Eric suggested one way to accomplish what I wanted was to disable the copying. Indeed, something like [[self enclosingScrollView] setCopiesOnScroll:NO]; in my custom view did the job.


The side effect of this is that since there is no copying anymore, the argument to drawRect in my custom view after scrolling is the entire visible rectangle (rather than just a small strip exposed after scrolling).

So I wanted to draw my object in the scroll view instead, by subclassing it. Which I did and then I ran into the problem I described - I am not drawing any background in my custom view (enclosed in my custom scroll view) but still don't see the drawing in the custom enclosing NSScrollView? Drawing in the custom scroll view started showing only after I overrode isOpaque of my custom view to return YES, which has me thoroughly confused.

So if my custom view's isOpaque is not overridden at all, or if it returns NO, the drawing in the enclosing custom NSScrollView does not show. Isn't that exactly the opposite of what it should be?

The hierarchy is scroll view contains clip view contains my custom view, correct? So if my custom view does not do any drawing at all, am I not supposed to see the drawing in the subclassed enclosing scroll view?
