IKImageBrowser Background Image Issue

I have a NSView hierarchy that is causing issues.

I'd like to apply a static (fixed) patterned image in the background of an IKImageBrowser. My view hierarchy is like so:

NSWindow
-> Content View
->-> MyCustomView
->->-> NSScrollView
->->->-> IKImageBrowser

I tried adding an NSImageView under the NSScrollview, and making the background color [NSColor clearColor] on the Imagebrowser and scroll view, but I end up with horrible graphic glitching issues... I assume because I have two views with clear set. Seems fine when just one clear view.

Does anyone have any advice on how I can achieve a patterned fixed background to the image browser?

Solution

  • I've figured this out.

    I've subclassed NSScrollView and added the background there. I've then made the IKImageBrowserView background transparent. Seems to work.
