You're drawing the line at an integer coordinate. That places it exactly
between the pixels on the screen, so to anti-alias the line, it gets drawn on
both sides at half brightness. Adding

Forgot to mention... or ask.
I guess this come from where the view its positioned.. so If I want to draw
anything I will have to do it at .5 on each point, shall I change instead the y
origin to a .5 coordinate so I will don't don't put .5 on each drawing I make
in the view? or the mistake com
No worries, I modify it and in fact it does work, but the background images
will display a .5 gap between along the horizon between the images that conform
the background, so I will put just a .5 to everywhere I need instead...

Thanks for the Guide/Walkthrough, Here's what I have come up with from that:
NSDictionary *tA = [textView typingAttributes];
NSMutableDictionary *tAM = [tA mutableCopy];
NSParagraphStyle *pS = [tAM objectForKey:NSParagraphStyleAttributeName];
NSMutableParagraphStyle *pSM = [pS muta
Yep, that looks ok. I think pS is probably being returned as nil. You can
check this in Xcode. In which case, you can add:
if (pS == nil)
pS = [NSParagraphStyle defaultParagraphStyle];

Thanks for the suggestions. What I have in mind is just a standard NSWindow,
but with a few tweaks to integrate it better with NSStatusItem. I'll first try
the child window method. The only reason I dont want to completely draw the
whole window is that resizing is not easily implemented with a c

the bottom bar and intercepts all mouse events, but I want the window to be

Okay, I think I have this kind of sorted (courtesy of this source and, of
course, Google) - so if anyone else needs to do this in the future, they can
do it with this code:
To save position:

The window is going to be "attached" to an NSStatusItem, so it would be best if
it stayed in one spot.

OK, that's a good enough reason. :) Did you try adding a custom view to the

Yeah its a non rectangular area, so I'll probably have to go with the second

And also I need some clarification on the mouse event eater. Would it just be
something like this in the subclass:

{
// Do nothing
}
Or something else?

You should not be releasing pnl because you do not own a reference to
