The controls used in the title bar are NSThemeWidgets and not your standard 
button.  It appears that many functions are overridden to control behavior.  
Your best best is to hide the standard controls and place your own buttons 
there.  This is what I have done for my Inspector Panel.

It's not easy.

1. If you retrieve a NSButton with the official API, you will not be able to 
get the mouse over effect. This is a bug since Mac OS X 10.4 and it has still 
not been fixed in Mac OS X.

2. The NSButton Apple uses for NSWindow buttons are not simple NSButtons. And 
you can not display the mouse over version of the button rendering (as far as 
I've tried and Apple's DTS was not able to provide a solution either).
