I've been debugging this one for quite a while until I realized that

they ended up below another sibling layer.

My best guess would be that -renderInContext: always renders in the same
order you get from the -sublayers array, without the zPosition sorting you
get on display. This is probably a bug, but your best work around would be to
sort the sublayers array yourself rather than relying upon zPosition to do
so. -- David Duncan

Indeed, changing the order in which the sub-layers are added such that higher zPosition gets added later, makes it render correctly, so your assumption seems correct. This is a huge step forward for static content but for layers dynamically added when other layers are already visible it's a less than optimal fix. I don't want to mess with my sublayers, remove and re-add them to fix -renderInContext: behavior.

Anyway, thanks a lot for your response, it's very helpful!

Regards
Markus
