You're right, I read it according my expectation, not according to the actual words. :) This is very strange, though. According to this document, NSMomentaryPushInButton is the behavior of a normal push-button, and we know it *is* shown as pushed-in (for at least some of the bordered button types). Also, here's what the Leopard release notes had to say about it: > The constants NSMomentaryPushButton and NSMomentaryLight where reversed.

After playing around with IB's simulator for a bit, I couldn't find a case where the two non-deprecated constants made any visual difference, either -- regardless of the presence of a template image. I have a vague recollection of finding a difference between them, in the past, but it's possible that I'm just remembering reading the documentation and believing what it said. It's possible that there's technically a difference between the two types, but that no bezel formats currently show the difference visually. Very strange. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
