The same way you handle drawing. Implement all of the NSCell event methods, use the event's position to figure out which cell was hit, and then pass the message to it. For example, if you have several NSTextFieldCells, you'll keep track of their locations internally (or calculate it each time you need it), see which one intersects the point in question, then tell it that it was clicked. The NSTextFieldCell will then take care of all the editing stuff for you. > Alternatively, is there any way to reposition the cells > horizontally (and change their width) for a specific row? There is not, each NSTableColums is in a fixed location for the entire extent of the table. You might consider using an NSCollectionView for this instead. It would allow you to have a custom NSView (rather than a custom NSCell) for each row which could then have subviews positioned as you wished. The downside is that, because it creates one view for every object in the collection view, it has a lot of overhead if you have a large number of objects to display.
