Thanks Alastair,

I tried drawing in the mouseDragged method but that doesn't seem to work.

This should work, but only if you remembered to do [self lockFocus] and [self unlockFocus] around your drawing. (Assuming, that is, that you're drawing in the view that received the -mouseDragged: message.)

Sorry I hadn't noticed those methods. So I've got this:

- (void)mouseDragged:(NSEvent *)event
{
NSPoint currentPoint = [self convertPoint:[event locationInWindow] fromView:nil];
NSBezierPath* path = [[NSBezierPath alloc] init];
[self lockFocus];
[[NSColor redColor] set];
[path setLineWidth: 2.0];
[path moveToPoint:lastPoint];
[path lineToPoint: currentPoint];
[path closePath];

[path stroke];
[self unlockFocus];
[lines addObject:path];
[path release];
lastPoint = currentPoint;
}

and it doesn't work :-(

Eventually the scribbles appear but not straight away for some reason. I set the drawRect code to use a different colour so I can see what is being drawn where and red lines do appear.

Any suggestions?

I'll try the bounds suggestion as well but I would like to understand why this doesn't work.

Thanks again,

Richard
