There are some application, whose controls use the NSGraphiteControlTint, although the control tint in System Preference is set to NSBlueControlTint.How can this be done? Thanks, Ralph.
Hi!My answer is below, but I strongly advise you not to potentially go against the user's own preferences. A user will expect your controls to appear the way that they're used to seeing them, and the first thing that I (and many others, I suspect) do when I find an app that doesn't "feel" quite right is drag it to the Trash. I would submit that unless you have a very special case, just wanting to make your app look different is not a real reason to do this.
If you have a need to do this, I would go with the method -[NSCell setControlTint:] (a few other classes have it such a method, too; search the docs).
Apologies if that sounds harsh. It is meant with no disrespect and also to save you trouble, as I cannot emphasize enough how important appearance is to a Mac app. :)
Cheers,
Andrew
