It is my understanding that this piece of documentation is out of

fully supported.

I wouldn't mind having a definitive answer to this question (Apple guys?), because my UI design would need to be completely different depending on this info:

Overlapping views work on Leopard, but do not work before that. The documentation is out of date.

As far as my experiments show, overlapping views only work if you are using core graphics based views.
If you are using NSOpenGLView based views (my test case was actually a mix of opengl and coregraphics based views), then sibling clipping does not work (but container clipping does).

Sorry; I should have mentioned there are some exceptions...most notably things with isolated CoreAnimation layer backed view-trees, and gl views.


Please do log bugs on any issues you discover. thanks!
