I am looking for some code to make the root object's in an outline view have a different background color to the other rows. I am pretty sure I need to sub-class the outline view but I don't know what code to add to the sub-class to do what I want it to do (which is what I described above).
There shouldn't be any need to subclass the outline view -- you will most likely be able to set the desired background color in outlineView:willDisplayCell:forTableColumn:item: (and/or outlineView:willDisplayOutlineCell:forTableColumn:item:).
Another possibility, if it's important that the top level object rows need to look different but it's not crucial that you use a specific background color, is to implement outlineView:isGroupItem: (another delegate method), which gives group rows a distinctive look.
