Thanks a lot , James.Actually , I don't want to use carbon . : ( Because I'm totally a newbie to carbon.But I have no choice to do that . I have a custom view which need to set into a menuItem . This is not supported in Tiger. And when I search the key word "Carbon Menu" in Google , there seems to be not so much useful reference. What I'm doing now , is that get the menuRef from cocoa menu nib , draw Everything I need on that menuItem using carbon with MenuRef. Then set it back to the menu . I 'm wondering , is that ok if I am implementing the staff like this ? Since the example I found on the net about the carbon menu staff are usually using the carbon menu nib file instead of cocoa menu nib file.
