Keep in mind that the Dock resizes the icon to fit. So pick a font size that will show normally on a 128x128 image (the size of the icon).

This is just a guess, but I'm thinking that a font whose size is 2 would be
very, very, very small.

Hi all and happy new year!

I'm trying to draw a badge, as in mail.app, and then draw the numbers
onto it.

Thanks to code snippets and advice from the list (thanks!) I've got
the badge on there but can't seem to draw numbers onto it.
I'm pretty new at the cocoa thing really so apologies but I'd
appreciate any help that's out there.

partial code snippet below.... it IS displaying the badget, but I'm
obviously messing up the attributedstring drawing.

[appImage lockFocus];
[badge compositeToPoint:NSMakePoint(80, 80)
operation:NSCompositeSourceOver];

//quick attempt to draw a 1 in the badge
[@"1" drawAtPoint:NSMakePoint(10,10) withAttributes:[NSDictionary
dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
    [NSColor whiteColor], NSForegroundColorAttributeName,
    [NSFont systemFontOfSize:2], NSFontAttributeName,
nil]];

[appImage unlockFocus];
