Question

I already have a view controller with a default view and few things added to it programmatically.
Now I have a draggable shape which I can move and whenever I click a button a dot should be drawn there at a point I want.

Now My UIView is not a custom view so I cant use drawRect.

So I have two solutions use CALayer or to use small images for dots or a small custom view that represents a dot.

Which will be a better solution or If there is a simpler way then please tell me.

Answer 1

CALayer is better and faster in your case. Just don’t forget to setShouldRasterize:YES to your view’s layer.
