This is just a guess, but I'm thinking that a font whose size is 2 would be
very, very, very small.

Hi all and happy new year!
I'm trying to draw a badge, as in mail.app, and then draw the numbers
onto it.
Thanks to code snippets and advice from the list (thanks!) I've got
the badge on there but can't seem to draw numbers onto it.
I'm pretty new at the cocoa thing really so apologies but I'd
appreciate any help that's out there.
partial code snippet below it IS displaying the badget, but I'm
obviously messing up the attributedstring drawing.
[appImage lockFocus];
[badge compositeToPoint:NSMakePoint(80, 80)
operation:NSCompositeS];
//quick attempt to draw a 1 in the badge
[@"1" drawAtPoint:NSMakePoint(10,10) withAttributes:[NSDictionary
dictionaryWAndKeys:
[NSColor whiteColor], NSForegroundColorAttributeName,
[NSFont systemFSize:2], NSFontAttributeName,
nil]];
[appImage unlockFocus];

Keep in mind that the Dock resizes the icon to fit. So pick a font
size that will show normally on a 128x128 image (the size of the icon).

Hi Greg,

Thanks for the suggestion but I'm pretty sure it's not a font size
problem.

I've tried a variety of sizes in random desperate attempts to get
something, anything to show.

Absolutely nothing appears in the badge, not even a single changed
pixel it really does feel
like nothing is being drawn at all in any way so I'm thinking there's
a fundamental problem with
my drawatpoint line
