Anti-aliasing lines when using CATransform3DRotate



I copied the code from the answer to How do I apply a perspective transform to a UIView? in order to achieve the following image. Note, however, the jagged lines separating the levels. Is there away to perform this kind of perspective transformation in a way that anti-aliases these jagged lines?





enter image description here





Edit I've tried the solutions offered by DarkDust in the comments on this post. None seem to work. Here's my code:







levelView = [[UIControl alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(100, 60, 160, 230)];

[self addSubview:levelView];

levelView.transform = CGAffineTransformScale(self.transform, .8, .8);



CALayer *layer = levelView.layer;



//DarkDust's 2nd comment

layer.borderWidth = 1;

layer.borderColor = [[UIColor clearColor] CGColor];



CATransform3D rotationAndPerspectiveTransform = CATransform3DIdentity;

rotationAndPerspectiveTransform.m34 = 1.0 / 1000;

rotationAndPerspectiveTransform = CATransform3DRotate(rotationAndPerspectiveTransform, 45.0f * M_PI / 180.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f);

layer.transform = rotationAndPerspectiveTransform;



for (NSString *ID in [NSArray arrayWithObjects:@"Level 1", @"Level 2", @"Level 3", @"Level 4", @"Level 5", nil]) {



//Note the offset of 5 from the superview in both X and Y directions. This addresses DarkDusk's first comment

UIControl *ctrl = [[UIControl alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(5, y + 5, levelView.frame.size.width, 220/5)];

[levelView addSubview:ctrl];

[ctrl addTarget:self action:@selector(languageSelected:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchDown];

[self styleEnabled:ctrl];



UILabel *label = [[UILabel alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(13, 0, ctrl.frame.size.width - 13, ctrl.frame.size.height)];

[ctrl addSubview:label];

label.text = ID;

label.font = [UIFont systemFontOfSize:20];

label.textColor = [UIColor colorWithRed:1 green:1 blue:1 alpha:.8];

label.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];



y += ctrl.frame.size.height;

}







The level buttons you see in the image are all instances of UIControl , and they are the direct subviews of UIControl *levelView . levelView is the one that is getting transformed.





The other two of DarkDusk's comments refer specifically to UIImages, which I am not using. If they are still applicable and someone can explain how to implement them, I'll certainly give them a shot.

div not scrolling properly with slimScroll plugin

I am using the slimScroll plugin for jQuery by Piotr Rochala Which is a great plugin for nice scrollbars on most browsers but I am stuck because I am using it for a chat box and whenever the user appends new text to the boxit does scroll using the .scrollTop() method however the plugin's scrollbar doesnt scroll with it and when the user wants to look though the chat history it will start scrolling from near the top. I have made a quick demo of my situation http://jsfiddle.net/DY9CT/2/ Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Why does this javascript based printing cause Safari to refresh the page?

The page I am working on has a javascript function executed to print parts of the page. For some reason, printing in Safari, causes the window to somehow update. I say somehow, because it does not really refresh as in reload the page, but rather it starts the "rendering" of the page from start, i.e. scroll to top, flash animations start from 0, and so forth. The effect is reproduced by this fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/fYmnB/ Clicking the print button and finishing or cancelling a print in Safari causes the screen to "go white" for a sec, which in my real website manifests itself as something "like" a reload. While running print button with, let's say, Firefox, just opens and closes the print dialogue without affecting the fiddle page in any way. Is there something with my way of calling the browsers print method that causes this, or how can it be explained - and preferably, avoided? P.S.: On my real site the same occurs with Chrome. In the ex
