I don't understand your answer. The documentation for -tableView:dataCellForTableColumn:row: says "A different data cell can be returned for any particular table column and row, or a cell that will be used for the entire row (a full width cell)." What I am trying to do is to display multiple text items arranged in a custom format. For that purpose I use this delegate method to return my "custom cell" wherein I have modified drawWithFrame:inView: to do my custom drawing. From the documentation I understand that this delegate method is used to return an NSCell subclass. This subclass can include a custom method to draw the cell. Couple of questions: - If this is not the right way to do what I described. Could someone point me in the right direction? - Out of curiosity, for what other purpose can -tableView:dataCelForTableColumn:row: be used. Thanks Hrishi
