UIView mysteriously expand by 1 pix when added to as subview

Question

I created a custom "component" made up of UIView and it gets added as subview on any visible view. What I found strange is that when it get added to a view the second time, the width got increased by 1 pix. This caused a problem when it expanded the background image and causes the image to blur out.

Any ideas why a view will get expanded (or shrink) when added to another view?

Answer 1

The issue may be related to the location of the view. Perhaps one of these stories will shed more light on the issue:
