Thanks a lot for your response ...

Could you please point me to a few of them?

Can CATextLayer render text with a shadow?
Like this:
  CGContextSetShadowWithColor( ctxt, CGSizeMake(0,0), 10, blue );

I really need the shadow to be able to discern it from a background layer, the color of which is unknown and changes fairly often.

Best regards,
Gabriel.
