I've spent all Thanksgiving week learning Cocoa and I've made
tremendous progress. I have the basics down finally and I'm ready to do
some application stuff. One of the things I'd like to do is be able to
draw shadows around a NSView (or any rectangle container). Seems like
only NSWindows can have shadows.
Does anybody know if there is a built-in shadow method?
There is, but it's private and the API will change in a future release.
For an example of how to do it, poke around in the source code to ASM
(Application Switcher Menu,
http://asm.vercruesse.de).
I don't know if Apple plans on exposing this API in a future release. If
not, why not?
