I'm not saying it's a great idea, but there's a reason that the option
and setViewFocusRingType: is available. Sometimes it does make sense
to use them. I have no clue if it makes sense in Todd's case or not.
Besides, the focus ring type only determines the drawing style of the
focus indicator of the control/view, not its ability to accept focus.
It should still be accessible, but the user may have no clue that it's
the current control unless there's some other indicator. Good design?
I'd say not, but I don't know anything about what he's working on.
I agree that you rarely should need to do this and that it's almost
always nonstandard behavior, especially on a control.

Set the control's focus ring to "none" in IB.
Please don't do that as this will not make your app fully accessible.

I've got this pane with a bunch of checkboxes. When the thing comes

em?). Anyhow, they don't suit my app. I want to turn them off, but
I don't see an option in IB for this.
What's the trick to disabling all focus rings in my app - (or at
least on a view by view basis)?
You probably have full keyboard access turned on in System
Preferences. This is the correct behavior.
