Well, you can use the standard way to override some global preference just for
your app:
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
[[NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults] setVolatileDomain:
[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:[NSNumber
numberWithInt:NSGraphiteControlTint]
forKey:@"AppleAquaColorVariant"]
forName:NSRegistrationDomain];
return NSApplicationMain(argc, (const char **) argv);
}
For this specific key, it must be done before calling NSApplicationMain().
It works, but this is sort of a gray (hehe) area. The key
"AppleAquaColorVariant" is undocumented. It's not too likely to change, but if
it changes, your control color will return to normal with no other harm done -
no crashing etc. Use at your own risk.
HTH,
