Jacob,
You may want to look at applying one or more of the numerous filters
available to you when you make your controls layer backed. I did this
with most of the controls in my HUD for an image editing application
and it works just fine. "Color Monochrome" is your friend!
Using filters avoids all of the hueristics of modifying controls to
use custom imagery. Note: Applying a filter to most text will
product crappy-looking text. In my case, I simply used white text.
later,
douglas

I'm adding a HUD panel to my application. Looking around, I don't
see a way to get the proper style of controls easily. The Human
Interface Guidelines say that HUD controls should be "white with
gray accents and use white or gray text." And yet I don't see a way
to get these controls (gray sliders, semitransparent buttons, etc.)
in Interface Builder. Am I missing something?
