animating adding/removing layers on iPhone

On the iPhone, when you add a sub layer to a visible view's layer, using either -addSublayer: or -removeFromSuperlayer, shouldn't that sub layer appear or disappear in an animated manner (ie. fade in or fade out gradually)?

Is it possible to add layers to .tiff images with .NET?

Are there any .NET libraries etc. which allow adding layers (with text) to .tiff images? Something like annotations, so that it would be possible to separate them from image afterwards. I tried DotImage - it allows to add annotations, save them as embedded into image and load them afterwards, but no one other image viewer seems to reco...

I just want the white box to move up NOT the whole thing. So it should look like this: http://musicalad...

CloudMade Marker Overlays - Can The Z-Index Be Controlled?

Does the CloudMade API have the ability to control the z-order or z-index of the marker overlays (e.g.icons)? I have used this before in Google Maps to make certain icons with more importance draw over the top of other icons with lesser importance (especially in some zoom levels where they may bunch together).

Presentation layer / Public Services layer. A common term?

While defining our application architecture (which contains both web UI and external web services) we stumbled upon our inability to find a common name for the topmost layer.

Why is MVC so popular?

I was originally going to make this a longer question, but I feel like the shorter I make it, the better you'll understand what I mean. The MVC architectural pattern has 3 dependencies. The View depends on the model. The Controller depends on the View and Model. The Model is independent. The Layers architectural pattern defines N - 1 d...
