I’m a little confused on how overriding functions work in Objective-C regarding to overriding Framework functions.
For example: If I override the drawRect: function of an UITextView, the UITextView still does draw text and selection markers.
Can anyone explain me why this works? I would expect that overriding drawRect wouldn’t call the super implementation of UITextView‘s drawRect, otherwise I explicitly call it?
The
drawRectmethod is only responsible for drawing the view itself. If the view has some subviews, overridingdrawRectwon’t stop these from appearing. Maybe this is your case with the text view?
