Usually common problems already have simple solution. Like that one:
Problem
You subclassed UIView, you want to do some custom drawing in drawRect, but no matter what you do or where you draw, the background of the view remains black.
- (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect {
// Drawing code
CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
CGContextSetRGBFillColor(context, 0.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0);
CGContextFillEllipseInRect(context, rect);
}Solution
In the ViewController, which call the drawing class, add
myDrawingClass.opaque = NO;- or even nicer. In the drawing class’ init function:
self.opaque = NO;And not like that
- adding “self.opaque = NO;” in the drawRect: function
- CGContextClearRect(context, rect);
- CGContextSetAlpha(context, 0.5f);
