Wow, I don't code much, but that's a hard sell... perhaps you should have used the code/text tag or something...

What exactly is the problem?

[smeger]

Yeah, between the smilies, the lack of whitespace formatting, and the not telling us what the problem is, that's a toughie.

How about this "No lines appear on the view" for a problem?

Well, you do realize that you can't normally predict what the argument for drawRect: will be, right? It could be any arbitrary rectangle within your view. Using its properties for anything other than clipping is an iffy proposition.

With the utter lack of explanation as to what you intend for the code to do and what the variables represent, that's about all anyone could possibly say.

It might help to add an '[[NSColor blackColor] set]' in there before you do the drawing.

I'm trying to draw a line that connects points that are given by minMaxArray and minMaxDate [that take the values from a NSDictionary.

Nope, didn't do much good

After calling
[bezier moveToPoint:point0];
[bezier lineToPoint:point1];

try putting:
[bezier stroke];

Also, in case the points aren't comming from the dictionary so well, try making up some arbitrary points first.

For example:
point0 = NSMakePoint(10, 50);
point1 = NSMakePoint(30, 100);

Of course, define your points before you use call the moveTo, lineTo and stroke methods.

Goodluck.
