Yep that didi it. Thanks for proving me wrong Quincey.
Here's a working solution:
// Overlay View
- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)drawRect {
[NSGraphicsContext saveGraphicsState];
// Draw all anotations, make sure _annotations is sorted front-to-back
for (Annotation *a in _annotations) {
[a draw:drawRect];
}
[NSGraphicsContext restoreGraphicsState];
}
// Annotation
- (void)draw:(NSRect)drawRect {
NSRect nodeRect = [_node boundingBox];
if (!NSIntersectsRect(nodeRect, drawRect)) {
return; // nothing to draw
}
// Fill the background
[[self annotationFillColor] set];
[NSBezierPath fillRect:nodeRect];
// Stroke the border
[[self annotationStrokeColor] set];
[NSBezierPath setDefaultLineWidth:2.0];
[NSBezierPath strokeRect:nodeRect];
// Draw the title
[[self labelAttributedString] drawAtPoint:[self annotationLabelPositionFor:nodeRect]];
// Clip
NSBezierPath* clipPath = [NSBezierPath bezierPathWithRect:drawRect];
[clipPath appendBezierPathWithRect:nodeRect];
[clipPath setWindingRule:NSEvenOddWindingRule];
[clipPath addClip];
}

It turns out that you can only intersect the current clipping path (initially the view's bounds) with a new path and the intersected region is the region where drawing is visible. This means that when you're drawing a larger rectangle over a smaller one, you would need to set the clipping path to all areas NOT covered by the smaller rectangle. This is basically the same problem as calculating which parts of the larger rectangle to draw and just drawing there.

That essentially "inverts" the tintRect within drawRect. Set the even-odd winding rule on the path, so that you don't have to be concerned about subpath directions (although I believe creating a compound path in the order I described will give correct results with non-zero winding rule, too).
