Cocoa: What's the difference between the frame and the bounds?

Question

UIView and its subclasses all have the properties frame and bounds. What\'s the difference?

Answer 1

Let me add my 5 cents.

Frame is used by the view's parent view to place it inside the parent view.

Bounds is used by the view itself to place it's own content (like a scroll view does while scrolling). See also clipsToBounds. Bounds also can be used to zoom in/out content of the view.

Analogy:
Frame ~ TV screen
Bounds ~ Camera (zoom, move, rotate)
