In my drawRect method, I am drawing a PNG image. On top of that, I want to draw a rect with a 20% alpha color, like this:

[[UIColor colorWithWhite:0.0 alpha:0.2] set];
UIRectFill(rect);

The problem is, that the alpha property seems to get ignored. No alpha is applied at all, just a black rectangle is drawn. How can I fix this? Thanks in advance!
