Re: How do I create apps with the Pro grey interfaces ?



a) Don't do it unless you have a *really* good reason. Mac users hate that.
b) Write it in Java and use Swing?
c) Write custom controls for everything
d) Persuade Apple that you have an important pro-level application and they might let you use ProKit (or so I was told at WWDC).
e) Use something like ShapeShifter to change the uI of the whole machine. (We had film-studio customers who work in dark rooms with the brightness turned up really high and they needed a dark interface to avoid being dazzled. This worked for them).

Anyway, what is the other method for changing icons and interfaces
background that you know of ?

They use a private framework called ProKit. You're not allowed to use
it.
