Nope. One of the facts of life of Mac development is that Apple's human-interface designers always come up with clever/weird new UI elements, which Apple's programmers [I used to be one] then have to frantically implement in their apps ... and then after the new OS release ships, 3rd party developers who want to create similar elements don't have any easy framework-level support for them. Typically what happens is that in the next major OS release, Apple's framework teams have time to implement and design public APIs for those features, making them easier for 3rd party apps to use. This has happened over the years with metal/textured windows, square buttons, animated list views, source lists, rule editors, dock icon badging, and more. —Jens_______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
