Thanks for the advice everyone. What I ended up doing was just making
a plain HUD panel (which is somewhat rounded)

Views are defined by their frame/bounds rectangles. But there's

to a round-cornered rect. Since the view draws nothing by default,
the fact that the "real" edge is a rectangle will not be apparent.
Unfortunately the OP is still going to find things difficult. A lot
of Apple's standard views, such as NSTableView/NSScrollView seem to
set their own custom clipping path during drawing which overrides
anything you set, so it's not as straightforward as it might seem.
I agree with Kyle, it is probably a good idea to rethink the design.
