Have you looked at the CoreAnimation example 'CovertFlow'? It's in /
Developer/Examples/Quartz/CoreAnimation.
It implements CoverFlow to display images (specifically, the desktop
pictures available on your Mac.) I expect it could be easily
repurposed to display anything.
No undocumented code necessary.
I believe the OP's question (among others) was whether there were any
patent issues. Note that Apple's permission to use, modify, etc. in
each of the example source files has a specific statement that this
permission does *not* supersede any patents.
"Except as
expressly stated in this notice, no other rights or licenses,
express or
implied, are granted by Apple herein, including but not limited to any
patent rights that may be infringed by your derivative works or by
other
works in which the Apple Software may be incorporated."
So if CoverFlow is patented, you may not be able to use coverflow in a
product even if there is example code for it. This is the domain of
lawyers, not software developers.
