Thanks for clearing that up David.

Apparently one cannot open an NSGraphicsContext within a CGContext, but I will experiment more this evening.

I'm discovering that drawing attributed text via CTLineDraw has significant limitation, but for my purposes I believe I can live within those limitations.

It would be, ahem, illustrative if there was an example or two of drawing simple NSAttributedString-based unicode text using CG in a CALayer within an NSView.

Thanks again,
Mike

Rendering a font with an NSColor attribute requires a current NSGraphicsContext. If you don't have one, then it will take the color form the CGContextRef instead.
