The 0,0 of the scrollview

Here’s a thing… You will get two dots at different location with this code. Why? I don’t know. Seems like both dots should be at the top left. Can anyone tell me why this happens?

local widget = require("widget") local circleA = display.newCircle( 0, 0, 50 ) local circleB = display.newCircle( 0, 0, 50 ) circleA.fill = {1,0,0} circleB.fill = {0,1,0} local scrollViewA = widget.newScrollView{ top = 0, left = 0, width = display.actualContentWidth, height = display.actualContentHeight, hideBackground = true, } scrollViewA:getView():insert( circleA ) local scrollViewB = widget.newScrollView{ top = 0, left = 0, width = display.actualContentWidth, height = display.actualContentHeight, hideBackground = true, } scrollViewB:insert( circleB )

Interesting discovery. But my first question is why do you call getView() instead of using the scrollView’s own insert() function? you have to have a reference to the SV to call getView(). Seems like a bit of a redundant method. What is your use case for needing getView()?
