Nope. No way to swap out the valuetransformer of the binding per row.
You can use part of Keary's suggestion tho. Don't set a
valuetransformer at all in the binding for the column. Use the
willDisplayCell: delegate method to take the value out of the cell,
apply your own value transformations based on the row or whatever, and
then set the new value on the cell.
Unfortunately, this setup will defeat the sorting behaviour Cocoa
Bindings gives you for free. Our automatic support for sorting, for
this column, will be wrong. I'd only suggest doing this for a column
that's not sortable/filterable. Otherwise, you should really just add
accessors to your model objects if you can (or create wrappers for
them if you have to) that give you the transformed properties.

i was asking about the "value transformer" that is specified for the
binding. i am aware that it is quite easy to change formatters.
thanx anyway,

displayed/edited? and if so, how?
Yes, you can. The formatter is a property of the cell, and not the
column, per se. You need an object that is the tableview's
delegate, then implement -
tableView:willDisplayCell:forTableColumn:row:. NSCell has a -
setFormatter: method for your convenience. I have used this
successfully without error, but I haven't performance tested it. I
don't suspect that it is much slower.
