As previously discussed in [[Drawing iOS 4 iPad 2D Graphics with Quartz (Xcode 4)|Drawing iOS 4 iPad 2D Graphics with Quartz]], the Quartz 2D API is the primary mechanism by which 2D drawing operations are performed within iPad applications. Having provided an overview of Quartz 2D as it pertains to iOS development for the iPad, the focus of this chapter is to provide a tutorial that provides examples of how 2D drawing is performed. If you are new to Quartz 2D and have not yet read [[Drawing iOS 4 iPad 2D Graphics with Quartz (Xcode 4)|Drawing iOS 4 iPad 2D Graphics with Quartz]] it is recommended that you do so now before embarking on this tutorial.
