It seems that I forgot to mention that I've tried that without success. I can successfully set the background color of the selection using this (in the initWithFrame: method of my custom text view): NSMutableDictionary *dict = [[[self selectedTextAttributes] mutableCopy] autorelease]; [dict setObject:[NSColor redColor] forKey:NSBackgroundColorAttributeName]; [self setSelectedTextAttributes:dict]; Now, any selected text will have a red background selection. Changing the NSBackgroundColorAttributeName attribute to NSForegroundColorAttributeName makes the selection background color the system's default again, but doesn't affect the color of the selected text. Am I missing something here?
