Of course, if you want the tabs to be on your title bar, like what Chrome and the new Firefox do, you’ll need some NSWindow trickery. What I would personally do? I would create a view subclass and draw the tabs myself with Core Graphics, and then add that view as a subview of the target window’s theme view. Then I’d do what Uli suggested and use an NSTabView to switch between content (UNLESS you’re using WebKit - then switch the active WebFrame). But you should tell us more so that we can get some additional information and give better advice. > > Cheers, > -- Uli Kusterer > “The Witnesses of TeachText are everywhere...” > http://zathras.de > > > _______________________________________________ > > Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) > > Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list. > Contact the moderators at cocoa-dev-admins(at)lists.apple.com > > Help/Unsubscribe/Update your Subscription: > https://lists.apple.com/mailman/options/cocoa-dev/sevenbitstech%40gmail.com > > This email sent to sevenbitst...@gmail.com
