In IB whenever I have overlapping views I get warnings about
illegal geometry & views overlapping other views. Does this mean
that Cocoa doesn't really support overlapping views? If so, do
views generally composite properly when overlapping?
This is a FAQ. Short answer is no. For the long answer, read up
documentation and search the archives.
Well, actually now the short answer is "it depends on the target
system"
it should work fine on 10.5. I that restriction was lifted for
Leopard. Have a look at the CocoaSlides example for evidence of this.
Before 10.5 it wasn't supported.
I had thought that only views put into Core Animation layers could be
overlapped. Thus, I didn't extend this CA capability to views in
general. Very nice if any view can now be overlapped whether using CA
or not.
