Hi, I heard that a lot of people get a context error by not using drawRect Now I have this: - (void)drawRect:(CGRect)rect { NSLog(@"drawRect: Starts"); CGContextRef context = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext(); CGContextSetRGBStrokeColor(context, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0, 1.0); CGContextSetLineWidth(context, 3.0); CGContextMoveToPoint(context, lineStart.x, lineStart.y); CGContextAddLineToPoint(context, lineEnd.x, lineEnd.y); CGContextStrokePath(context); } Error: <Error>: CGContextSetRGBStrokeColor: invalid context Which had work on previous programs, but not on this one. Whats different: I have a view controller, which calls this UIView: -(void)createLine:(CGPoint)start:(CGPoint)end { NSLog(@"createLine: Starts"); lineEnd = start; lineStart = end; self = [super initWithFrame:drawRect:CGRectMake(fmin(lineStart.x, lineEnd.x), fmin(lineStart.y, lineEnd.y), fabs(lineStart.x - lineEnd.x), fabs(lineStart.y - lineEnd.y))]; } This is my first question, and I am not sure how much info code I should be putting here so be easy on me :D Thanks
