Re: NSTableView, rows in reverse order

[Fred Kiefer]

I think what you are seeing is the correct behaviour. It should even be the 
same on MacOSX, but I am unable to test at the moment.

What happens is that you draw into a view you just created and this view isn't 
flipped, whereas an NSTableView is flipped. That way the rows show up in the 
wrong order. You should be able to correct this by using a flipped view instead.


My main question to you code is different, why  are you doing it that way after 
all? Why don't you just ask the NSTableView for a PS representation? I am not 
saying this will be working completely correct, but it surely is better to go 
in that direction and fix any problems you encounter.
