Andre,
I was digging through some old code and found this method I wrote awhile ago.
I remember basing this off of a blog post or email thread but I don't remember
the original source. I used this for something real quick so the code is not
perfect but may be a good starting point to get what
Seems like a lot of work for a simple effect. I may play again with this later
on this project. I have save this thread in Mail which is telling me that
there's "20 messages selected" using its fancy font effect :-)
Thanks for all infos guys,
Andre Masse

CTFrameGetPath() returns the path used to create the frame, typically a
rect

Ah, then that's the way to go! Thanks Jean-Daniel.
The image I created used as back
I think you can create a CGPath from some text using CTFrameGetPath().
Once you get the path, you can do whatever you want (clipping, shadow,
gradient, …).

Interesting. Not sure if could be possible to convert the text to an image,
apply a gradient and use one of the copy method of NSImage. I needed a break
from coding data migration, hence the pause trying this. Now, I'm back to the
boring part ;-)
Looks like your image didn't pass the list. Feel

The shadow is just an "inner shadow". The problem is that
For those interested, Matt and Kyle were right. Helvetica Neue Bold 20pts. All
my attempts to replicate the shadow have failed though. I'm using 85% white and
it's good enough for me.
Thanks to all,

I've downloaded it and looks like it works on Lion. Never used it, so I may
have to spend some time looking at tutorials.
Thanks for the suggestion,

Does F-Script Anywhere work on Lion? Maybe you can inspect the view and find a
clue. A bit of a long shot if they're doing totally custom drawing, but might
be worth a try. Maybe they're using a custom cell of some kind and you can look
at the font settings.

Forget that last one. Found how and it's worst :-)

PS: if anybody want that, here's how:
CGContextRef context = (CGContextRef)[[NSGraphicsContext currentContext]
graphicsPort];
CGContextSetShouldAntialias(context, NO);

Think I could be close if I could turn off anti-aliasing. Is there any way to
do that in -drawRect ?
Thanks,

Good guess but no luck. Looks like a demi bold version of Helvetica, but since
there's no font inside Mail's package, it can't be. Well, I don't really need
to be perfect. Close but pretty would be enough. It's definitely 19.0pt its
though. Could be drawn letter by letter, you never know :-)

Helvetica Neue?
It's very clearly not Lucida Grande.

Thanks but after having done 10+ screenshots and doing side by side
comparisons, it clearly isn't Lucida Grande. It's very close to Helvetica but
the kerning is different.

One less pass is good. Thanks.
Unfortunately, text is not as clean as Mail at this point. Small characters
like "e" loose sharpness (white space inside the character is reduced). Still
trying to find a winner by mixing different values. I'm not so sure Mail is
using Helvetica now.
Thanks for y
You can draw it in one pass using NSShadowAttributeName.

Hi,
In the new Mail, when there's no selection, the detail's view show "No Message
