I do something like this:
@implementation HilightingTextFieldCell
- (void)drawWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView:(NSView *)controlView {
if( [self isHighlighted] ) {
NSColor *oldColor = [self textColor];
[self setTextColor:[NSColor alternateSelectedControlTextColor]];
[super drawWithFrame:cellFrame inView:controlView];
[self setTextColor:oldColor];
} else {
[super drawWithFrame:cellFrame inView:controlView];
}
}
- (NSColor *)highlightColorWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView:(NSView
*)controlView {
return nil;
}
@end
HTH,

Playing with this a bit more, it appears that I need to also do:

running
// in any OS before leopard
// you can also return a color if you simply want to change the

return nil;
}
Or it will ignore my highlight drawing entirely. It appears this
is an undocumented API or, at least, I cannot locate it in the
documentation.
If a method starts with an underscore, don't even bother looking
it up in the documentation :) -- not only is it undocumented, but
it is unsupported and might change in the future.
The proper thing to do:
1. Subclass NSCell, NSTextFieldCell, or whatever other cell you want.
2. Override:
- (NSColor *)highlightColorWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView:
(NSView *)controlView
and return nil.
How would I go about subclassing NSTextFieldCell & NSImageCell and
then using these cell with my NSTableView?
