A group row: (a) spans all columns (though there’s just a single column to span, in this case), and (b) has a gray background. If you don’t want the gray background, then don’t make any group rows. Group rows are *supposed* to look different from regular rows, and they have other unique behavior, too. (It is *possible* to customize the appearance of group rows, though I’ve never done it. But it is to your users’ advantage if the rows look the same as in other apps.) > I noticed that I never hit anything that is not “GroupCell”. However this > does not solve the grey background right? Presumably, the top level folder that you’re displaying only has subfolders, and no files. Note that if your intention is to display a folder *hierarchy*, you’re going to have some trouble using a NSTableView, which is intended for a flat array. NSOutlineView is better suited to a hierarchy. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
