If overriding this fixed the problem, then the issue isn't the table drawing the highlight, but the cell. override this in NSCell and return nil: - (NSColor *)highlightColorWithFrame:(NSRect)cellFrame inView:(NSView *)controlView; It would be apparent to see that this is the problem by looking at it and seeing blue around just the cells, and not between columns/rows (ie: intercellSpacing). -corbin _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
