Description

This Cocoa sample shows how to overlay text & graphics and perform animation on an NSMovieView through a floating "overlay" window. This is accomplished by first creating a new window and adding subviews to this window. These subviews are used to draw our images and perform our animation. The new overlay window is then added as a child window to the NSMovieView window with the NSWindowAbove ordering so it will be ordered on top of the movie window. Any subsequent drawing in the overlay window subviews will then draw on top of the NSMovieView window, giving us the overlay effect we desire. Requirements: Project Builder 2.1 or better, Mac OS 10.2 Keywords: overlay NSView animation movie
