No, what I said is not the problem. You're not using the 'rect' parameter at all.

Consulting the 'colorWithPatternImage:' documentation:

The pattern is tiled relative to the window, not to the view. So, the 'colorWithPatternImage:' isn't a viable approach in this case.

You're going to have to browse the documentation to find a different approach (or search for sample code you can adapt). One possibility might be NSGradient, another might be NSDrawThreePartImage. These are both discussed here:

	http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/CocoaDrawingGuide/Introduction/Introduction.html

Or, you might be able to drop down to core graphics, and use something like CGContextDrawTiledImage.
