I forgot to say thanks for that link, Scott. It got me up and going nicely and the text looks gorgeous over playing video.
http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/SpeedometerView/index.html
However, I need a little more control over text placement (like paragraph alignment, and so forth)...
Couldn't I just have a hidden textview that I print into **and format**, and then convert that to a bezier path?
I can **sort of** envision how to do this using an NSTextView and the NSString category additions in that SpeedometerView project, but I can't connect enough of the dots in mind. The text storage mechanism in cocoa has always been a pretty confusing concept to me.
Can someone help me out a little here. Thanks.
